Access 2000 Cursor In Wrong Position

P

Petkeeper

When I try to enter data in any of my form fields the cursor is not going to
the end of my data in my field. Example...if I have the words "Woodman of
America" and I put my cursor in that field box, it is highlighted over the
"M" in Memorial and does not seem to the the rest of the word Memorial.
Please help.

I recently had to reinstall all my programs due to computer hardware
problems. I am running Windows ME. I first installed Micrsoft Office
Professional 97 and then found my Office 2000 Premium disk so I installed
that afterward. All other programs in Office 2000 are running correctly
except for this problem I am having using Access.

Go to Tools | Options | Keyboard, and you'll see an option group "Behavior
entering field".
You can choose how you want the cursor to act when it enters a field.

I tried your advise using all the various options for keyboard and it isn't
helping. It is still not recognizing all the letters in the field. Any other
suggestions???

Does the selection work the same, no matter what option you choose?
Does it work OK on two of the options, and just not when you select the
Whole Field?
