This can also happen if you have hit Alt at some point without adding in a second key function (eg Alt -V for the View menu). If Linda's suggestion hasn't worked, might be worth trying to click Alt once to see if it clears the problem.

I don't know if that would do it, but it could be the culprit. Go to Tools>Options and see if "navigation keys for wordperfect users" is checked...if so, uncheck that. Is that it? Linda F.

Any other suggestions out there? I can use the increase/decrease indent keys, but that is not nearly as handy as the tab key Susan ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
