Paragraphs duplicating
When I am typing in Word 2003 and sign off a document with my name "robert",
if i type the last 3 initials quickly it automatically duplicates the paragraph I have just typed. When i type ERT slowly this avoids the problem. I read somewhere something about enabling macros and I wonder if i have accidently set this to recognise this word when typed it thinks i want to duplicate the paragraph i have just typed. This is when i am using word 2003. Even when i am using internet explorer, if i type the name quickly it takes me from filling in a form straight to the address bar. I haven't got a clue what i have done wrong, if at all anything. Thanks in advance. |

Do you have a keyboard that's capable of storing macros? Or some other
global macro software? Sounds like you have "ert" set as a "repeat the last command" (Like F4 or Ctrl+Y does). ************ Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "Aarjay777" wrote in message news When I am typing in Word 2003 and sign off a document with my name "robert", if i type the last 3 initials quickly it automatically duplicates the paragraph I have just typed.

It's a Gericom Laptop.
As I have never worked with macros before i dont understand what they are never mind switch them off. As it is a German manufacture I would assume that if anything it may have global macro software. Any suggestions as to how I would disable this feature. Thanks "Anne Troy" wrote: Do you have a keyboard that's capable of storing macros? Or some other global macro software?

Paragraphs duplicating
You are seeing the results of ALT+E then R; i.e. open the Edit menu
and R for Repeat Typing. You might be hitting the ALT key accidentally, though this seems awkward. You might have a defective keyboard with the ALT key getting stuck sometimes. You might be brushing a touch-pad and having that somehow interpreted as the ALT key.
