Re: changing space bar direction

Since I am retired and have been working with computers for over 40 years I
think I am old enough to have had one of theses apparently now obsolete
keyboards that you have. I suggest that you get a new keyboard and stop
trying to insult those of us who are trying to help you or go somewhere else
with your problem.

look; I have a compaq keyboard, there are TWO spacing bars on the bottom
of
the key board, one of them has an arrow on it pointing to the left, it is
supposed to backspace your typing cursor to the LEFT, the other bar is
plain,
it does not have an arrow on it:(THEY ARE NOT THE ARROW KEYS) It should
move
your cursor to the right when you are typing so you can put a space
between
the words you are typing, Follow me so far???this is a compaq keyboard I
have used it for many years, there is a couple of keystrokes to use to
reverse the function of the two spacing bars. My grandson was playing on
here
and changed them, I take it none of you are old enough to have had one of
these keyboards, so maybe I am wasting my time here?

Maybe the OP is referring to the left an right arrow keys, however, I
have
never heard about them going in the wrong direction.
