Re: In Office 2007 the single quotation mark changes the following

It seems you have provided the answer! My ThinkPad is of US origin, but I
prefer (& try to use) UK-English. While it allows me to set UK-English as
the normal default, it often resets (itself I think, though maybe it's
something I do!) to US-English. Anyway, I have just re-set it to UK-English
(UK region & language) and apart from " appearing when I hit the @ key, (&
vice versa) everything works "properly" now.

Many thanks for your help,

AL

Thanks Stefan, I've tried that already, in fact have changed the keyboard
layout only to find the problem persists in different layouts.

When I hit either quotation mark, single (') or double (") followed by
the
letter keys, the following letters are produced in lower case:
'q 'w é 'r 't ý ú í ó 'p
á 's 'd 'f 'g 'h 'j 'k 'l
'z 'x ç 'v 'b 'n 'm
The q w r t p s d f g h j k l z x v b n m letters are as I want &
expect,
but see how the e y u i o a and c letters have appeared - not as
'normal'
letters.
Likewise upper case letters.

I know if I hit ' or " followed by a space the 'normal' letters appear.

What's going on, and can I stop (what is to me) this 'abnormality'
happening?
