Make sure your keyboard is set to the correct language (Control Panel
Regional Options). I forget the details but some keyboard languages use the
quote key as a prefix to produce an accent on the following character and do
not produce anything on screen until the second key is pressed. You may find
that pressing something like quote-enter or quote-space produces a single
quote character - again I forget the details.

Yes, on the same key next to my enter button. The direction of the
parenthesis is indeterminable but the apostrophe is 'right'.

You have the apostrophe and a parenthesis (left or right?) on the same
key?

Help...why do apostrophe marks and parentheses only appear in pairs
(ie, I
have to hit the button twice and then they appear in sets). These are
located
on the same key on my laptop.
