Hi George, I will check on the keyboard instalation. Yes, all were installed via an image. Our main office does all the installations fvia an image copy and this could be the problem. However, it does make their job easier. We are using windows xp service pac3 on all hp computers with four gb ram.
Thanks so much for your advice.----- Original Message ----- From: "FreeLists Mailing List Manager" <ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Can you advise what operating system(s) is running on the workstations? Additionally, is it imaged such that you install the op. system on each workstation from a common image? This might explain why all 25 systems exhibit the same problem. One immediate thought, regardless of op. system, would be to check which keyboard language is in use. This may seem odd, until for example, you find the if you accidentally installed a UK or European keyboard, the two Alt keys respond differently. Left Alt is just plain Alt, but right Alt produces Alt + Ctrl. (And in fact the keyâ?Ts legend is â?oAlt Grâ??) It is normally used to generate a third character from a key. For example number 4 on the top show. Shift + 4 produces a Dollar sign, and Alt Gr + 4 produces a Euro currency sign (â,¬). There are however a number of programs available which will analyse shortcuts, Shortcut Doctor being one of them. See http://www.funduc.com/shortcut_doctor.htm.Â; Although it costs $15, it might well save you hours of hunting down the problem by listing your shortcuts.

I have created the powerpoint shortcut of alt plus ctrl plus p from the desktop in hopes this might fix the problem. However, control plus p still opens powerpoint. Where is this shortcut hiding and can I delete it? Help is very much appreciated! ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** guispeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ------------------------------ End of guispeak Digest V6 #39 *****************************
