I'm not sure what keyboard layout you are talking about. On the US
layout the shortcut is alt-`-e. You can always use KeyCaps to find out
what key combination you need.

Marguerite,

There is a bug in Powerpoint that just interprets a ^ accent to an 'enter'
or 'tab' keystroke. I was never able to specifically find how to do it. It
often has to do with file or file template coming from a PC.

The only fix I found was to open back the offending file on WinX, maka a
small change, save it again and move it back to MacOS X.

Is you ^ working in other application than Office??

I thought the problem had been fixed ???
I don't see it anymore in my US version of Office 10.1.5 using a US
layout keyboard (but it might affect other localizations and or other
keyboard layouts).
