Bug with recognition of apostrophe key. V. Frustrating!!

A

Andrew

Just hoping someone has a way to fix a bug that has been on my system since a
recent reformat. In any program, pressing the apostrophe key just once won't
make either apostrophes or quotes appear. Any second keystroke will cause
them to pop up, but it's a pain whenever editing, as you need to delete the
'confirmation' keystroke. I just want this to go away, but can't find any
setting to fix it.

I am in Australia, incidentally, in case this is an international newsgroup.

You probably have an international keyboard layout selected in
Windows. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306560 "How To
Use the United States-International Keyboard Layout in Windows
XP", except that you want to select the standard U.S. keyboard
instead of the U.S.-International keyboard.
