quotation marks
Why can't I type quotation marks without hitting space bar? This phenomenon
seems to have happened suddenly. Previously I hit the quotation mark key and it appeared instantly, now when I hit it it doesn't appear until I hit the space bar. |

You have inadvertently enabled an international keyboard layout.

You've probably toggled a foreign keyboard on by accident. Is the Language
bar showing? It displays two letters indicating the current keyboard language. It might have FR or ES showing right now, and displays in the Windows task bar. Click the two-letter tool and choose EN for English. Better still, after resetting the keyboard language to English, right-click the EN and choose Settings - Key Settings, and disable the hot keys from changing languages. This can keep you from accidentally toggling the keyboard setting. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP http://www.herbtyson.com Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along.

In Control Panel Regional and Language Options Languages Details, select the US keyboard instead of the US International keyboard.
