Allow elimination of keyboard lock when pressing caps lock button
When typing a document that requires switching between all caps and lower
case the keyboard lock time delay is extremely irritating. Need the ability to eliminate this time delay. I find it easier to work in other applications and then copy, paste into MS Word, etc. instead of just working in the Microsoft products. Since this is for work, and Microsoft is the application we are required to use, it would be nice to not have to purchase other applications just so I can get my job done before I have to retire! ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

In all the (many) years I've used computers, I've never encountered *any* "keyboard lock time delay". If there is one on your computer, though, it certainly isn't anything caused by Word. Do you see this delay in other programs? There are a few Windows settings in Start Settings Control Panel Accessibility Options that modify keyboard responses, but none of them introduce a delay in the caps lock response. You might find something in Start Settings Control Panel Keyboard Hardware Troubleshooting, or you might need to replace your keyboard (try borrowing one from another computer to see if it fixes the problem). It's unlikely, but maybe someone installed this program on your computer as a prank: http://members.execulink.com/~pjones/toggler/ -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

Allow elimination of keyboard lock when pressing caps lock but
Cool. I went into the Accessability options like you suggested, and found
two notify boxes checked. I un-checked them and now there is no delay. Thanks!
