Thanks for the info. I did find where the was being replaced with a
'space'
when typing more that one 'less than' symbol. I deleted the entry and
everything works just fine.

Again, thanks for the help

you
have something that replaces with a space. (Although AC shouldn't kick
in
until you press a space or punctuation.)

I can type any special character in word except the "less than" symbol.
As
soon as i type in once and try a second time, it automatically erases
itself
or just shows a white space like the space bar was just pressed. I
have
tried another PS/2 keyboard, a USB Keyboard and have updated office and
windows 2000 Pro. Everything else works fine.

Any Suggestions
