Shift Key "Sticks"
Hi,
My problem is, I'm typing along and I want to put a bracket and the some CAPS so what I do is press shift, put in the bracket and then (still holding Shift) is start typing the CAPS and below is what I get: ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((A It appears that the shift key is getting stuck. This is particularly annoying because I can't use my favourite Ctrl+Shift+Arrow to select whole words unless I continuously release and repress the combo. I've checked my accessibility options and everything is turned off so "Sticky Keys" is not the culprit. Could this be a problem specific to Acer Laptops? -- If this helps, please click "Yes" |

Shift Key "Sticks"
The problem is almost certainly a sticking key on your keyboard. That is a
hardware problem and nothing to do with Word. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
