Yeah! What gives???


"Caps Lock" is not the same as "Shift Lock". (A capital 7 is not "&")

This is so true!
Another is why not have ONE key for Ctrl-Alt-Del?

My laptop has no caps lock light, so this can happen all the time.

Maybe you should have taken a spelling course too. LOL. I can spell fast, but my typing is suspect.

I took typing in summer school between 7th and 8th grades (taking courses in summer school allowed me to have only one solid class required for graduation as a senior in high school). I learned where the home row was and all of the keys. Going to a computer keyboard from a typewriter wasn't a big deal. I can type quite fast without looking at the keyboard (and even have the right keys) My issue is spelling correctly lol.

I do not understand why if you put the caps on and hit the key to get #,$,& or other symbol, you get the number instead. You can only get the symbol if you use the shift key. Makes no sense to me.

You must be an old teletype operator.

[quote=tairving]Good one Bob, but for those who might stumble across this chain and are looking for a solution...

You don't have to retype the section. Select the offending text and hit Shift-F3. Do this repeated times and watch what happens. The selected text goes to all upper-case, then to all lower-case, then the first word in each sentence is capitalized and then it all repeats.

Wonderful tip that REALLY works!!!!!
