It might be a sticking state problem. If you're using the IntelliType
keyboard drivers, sometimes the Ctrl (as well as Alt, sometimes) key state gets stuck (has nothing to do with hardware, but is an interaction between the IntelliType drivers and IE7, so you're more likely to see the problem when switching from IE7 to another application). When this happens, pressing ordinary letters then has the same effect as the Ctrl+ versions of those letters until the stuck state gets cleared (which usually can be done by pressing/releasing Ctrl/Alt/Shift at the same time). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

In addition to the answers Graham and Herb gave you, it could be that you're
trying to use the browse arrows (at the bottom of the vertical scroll bar) for Next Page or Previous Page. If you've recently used the Find dialog, then the action for those buttons is Find Next and Find Previous (you'll note that the arrows are blue rather than black). You can restore their Next Page/Previous Page function by clicking on the Select Browse Object button between them and choosing Browse by Page. -- Suzanne S.
