It sounds like you've accidentally engaged the numlock & activated the
numeric keypad. Exactly where it is depends somewhat on the laptop you have, but once you locate it just press it to disengage the numlock. You should also see an LED on the keyboard console above the keyboard that lights up when the numlock is on.

Not the Caps lock! The Numlock! The keys you quote are those commonly used
as the numeric keypad keys on laptops that don't have an extended keyboard ie most of them! Press the Fn key and the Numlock key to turn it off (both are usually overprinted on shared keys. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org The Gob wrote: Hi The caps lock is not on the only letters affected are ijklmopu, whereby they either type numbers or symbols??? which i find bizarre, i have to use our main computor to type this "CyberTaz" wrote: It sounds like you've accidentally engaged the numlock & activated the numeric keypad.
