Re: The need to enter a space after Quotes in word


Thank you very much for responding, Graham. Does this mean, if he wants to
continue using English (International), he'd have to switch to another
language whenever he wanted to type quotation marks, and then switch back to
continue his document in English (International)?

You can setup several languages in Windows Regional settings each with their
own keyboard layout, and you can switch between them with a keyboard
shortcut or by clicking the task bar button.

Hi Suzanne,

I am working with a professor having a similar issue, and he has his
language set to English (International). When he types a quotation
mark, or a single quote, he must type it twice and then delete one of
them to make the mark display. He says he needs to use that language
- so the question is, if he needs this language, is there no other
solution to his problem than to type twice and delete one? Thanks so
much! (We are using Word 2007.)

The "United States - International" setting is the problem. You need
to find some setting that doesn't include "International." I'm using
Windows 2000, which has somewhat different settings, so I can't
advise you more specifically, but the only place I find "United
States - International" is if I check the box for "Keyboard
Layout/IME" on the "Add Input Language" dialog that I get by
clicking Add in the Text Services dialog, which I get to by clicking
Change on the Input Locales tab of Keyboard Properties or Regional
Options.

Thank you. I am using Windows XP, and my langauge setting is
English(Australian). My Keyboard setting is Ünited States -
International" (as you can see it is still making the special
character). However I am using a Belkin Wireless keyboard, and
Windows is still using the Microsoft Standard 101/102 Keyboard
driver, even though I have loaded the Belkin driver several times.
Should I be forcing a different driver somehow? Lyn

You have somehow enabled an international keyboard layout. Go to
Control Panel | Regional Options | Input Locales or Control Panel
| Keyboard | Input Locales (or the equivalent in your version of
Windows) and select the correct language for the keyboard.

Hi, when I type a quote " within Word, I have to add a space
after it to make it show, if I don't then it makes a special
character for example ë or ä . How can I stop this happening?
