FUNCTION KEYS
I am using microsoft office 2007, i used to use the F8 key to highlight words
at a time, by pressing F8 and then the control and arrow key to the left, right or up and down for solid block highlighting - i don't know what i have done but it is not working now and also when i try to use Control and an arrow key just to move cursor by a word it is not working - any ideas? Also when I press F8 key now it jumps to a different programme on my computer? |

FUNCTION KEYS
It seems you have dual function F keys. Press the F-lock key.

You'll need to look in your laptop's documentation, or ask the
manufacturer. This isn't a Word thing.

FUNCTION KEYS
There will be such a key on all keyboards that have dual function f keys. It
is called F Lock on Microsoft keyboards, but could be called something else on other keyboards - however the issue of the CTRL key could suggest something different at play. Maybe Windows accessibilty options Sticky Keys? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
