Word 2007: quotation marks issues
I know there was a post about Word 2003, but that didn't solve my problem.
Every time I enter a quotation mark, I have to press space or it either doesn't show up or changes to another symbol when I add in a vowel. My language settings are all English and I am operating in Windows Vista. Please help. -- seminarystudentpa |

Word 2007: quotation marks issues
It sounds like you're using a United States - International keyboard. Try
just plain US, and it should work as you expect. Right click the language bar icon on the Windows taskbar, and choose Settings, etc. Or, if your language toolbar has a keyboard symbol, click on it (left mouse button) and if US is listed (without "International"), then click on it. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "seminarystudentpa" wrote in message news I know there was a post about Word 2003, but that didn't solve my problem.

Word 2007: quotation marks issues
Weirdest thing: it has always been on the US setting (not International), and
that didn't work. That's why I posted the question. I changed it to the International keyboard and then back to the US keyboard, and now it works fine.

Word 2007: quotation marks issues
There were probably some binary bits stuck in your computer's teeth. ;-)
I'm not sure why, but sometimes "jiggling" the settings works. It's a bit like tapping on a television to bring it back to its senses. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "seminarystudentpa" wrote in message news Weirdest thing: it has always been on the US setting (not International), and that didn't work.
