Disabled function keys

[smwigg]

All function keys suddenly stopped working. Have tried the Disabled Items on
the About screen as directed by Word Help, and the Tools>Customize>Keyboard
threads, and have scoured Word help and the discussion groups for any
additional information, but no luck. Hopefully I am missing something very
obvious. thanks!

Check Tools > Options > General and make sure both options dealing with Word
Perfect are unchecked. Having these checked wouldn't disable the function
keys but would change them so that you might not notice what they were
doing.

The WordPerfect options were not checked, but thanks so much for your reply.
I followed the links and found lots of great info, but still nothing that
answered why my function keys are disabled. My workaround has been to assign
new keys to the functions I use most frequently (capitalization, update
fields, thesaurus), but it's annoying that I can't find a way to enable the
keys.
