Caps Lock
I have Office 2000. Sometime ago I made a setting whereby if you push caps
lock all entries are in caps. To take the caps off you have to push "shift". If you push "caps lock" it will not toggle off. I can't find where it is that I made that setting and I would like to take it off. This is the same in Word and Excel Thanks |

Caps Lock
Sorry about the duplicate question. I have never used a discussion group
before and didn't know what to do. Point is the auto correct is not the problem. The problem is if I put the caps lock on nothing will take it off except the shift key. If someone else used my computer and put the caps lock on they would be typing in caps forever if they didn't know that they needed to use the shift key to take it off. If you can help, I will appreciate it. Thanks "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Please see my reply to your previous duplicate question here. -- Suzanne S.

Caps Lock
Well, that's the opposite of what I thought you were asking, but it's also
not much easier to answer. I can only assume that a keyboard shortcut is somehow assigned to those keys or that the keyboard has been programmed in some way. I think it would have to be the latter because I don't believe that Caps Lock is a function that can be accessed from within Word (the AutoCorrect function depends on using the Toggle Case feature). -- Suzanne S.

Caps Lock
Thanks for trying. I remember somewhere seeing the option of taking caps
lock off with the shift key. Actually, I like the function. It saves me from doing the tHING that you were talking about. If the Caps lock is on and I move to another document and start typing, by using the shift for the first letter of the sentence it will automatically take caps lock off for the rest of the word. It's been a couple of years ago that I did this...my memory is not so good! "Suzanne S.

Caps Lock
I just found it. I went to Control Panel - Keyboards - Input Locales - and
there is an option to turn caps lock off with the shift key. The "Input Locales" is not a function in Word 2002, unfortunately. Thanks for your help. Sherri "Suzanne S.

Caps Lock
I see it now. Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to remember that in case
anyone asks about it again. I might like to use it myself; it's "typewriter-like," so it seems natural to us old typewriter users. -- Suzanne S.

Problem is, now I have XP home and I couldn't find it there.
I'm out - thanks again "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: I see it now. Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to remember that in case anyone asks about it again.
