Hi Lee,
There are a number of answers to that question :-
1 - Keh?
2 - If I knew what you were asking, I wouldn't know how
3 - If I have it's been by accident. Then the question is how do I unmap them
But the simple answer is :-
4 - No
If your question was prompted by the last few words of my previous post then I was being silly about the keyboard working today, and nothing is actually wrong.

I guessed you we're joking with the last part of your post. I thought you'd maybe created a custom keyboard map, for example some people disable their cAPS lOCK button, or add the windows key to the alt gr. I'm pretty sure you can't do this by accident so I'm sure the answer is Quote:
Have you remapped any of your keys?

After a sweltering Whitsun long weekend it has cooled down today - to a more comfortable 20C. They are now threatening 10C by Friday though.
We had a great BBQ with the family yesterday.
We are on code Orange here for risk of fires in the woods etc. If there's no rain soon we move to red, when BBQs get banned, even in our garden.
Just been to Ikea, without a store card (they don't have such a thing here, just your normal debit card or credit card).
Couldn't bring home the stuff as it wouldn't fit. so went to join the queue at customer service/delivery services. Immediately our number came up, much to the annoyance of those stuck in limbo waiting for CS. To my amazement they will deliver the stuff tomorrow. I'll even get a two hour window tomorrow so I don't have to be in all day.
Of course some vital bit will probably be missing and I shall be taking my place in the eternal CS queue on Thursday.

I heard that the last time there was a postal problem up there a whole bunch of lads walked all the way from Jarrow to London to deliver the message. (fell on deaf ears though as I recall)We've just got rid of the native in a loin cloth carrying the messages in a cleft stick There's progress for you As regards updates in speed, Sky promised nothing and so far have kept their word.

As ever. I'm really pleased I'm past employability, or, as it has been said, "Now you have reached the twilight years, you've become a burden to everyone"

"Now you have reached the twilight years, you've become a burden to everyone"
My reply to that is usually :-
"You've yet to prove that you can breathe in and out for the same time that I have"
I've got to get to at least 120 to get all the money back that they've taken off me over the years. Nil carborundum illigitemis

Come on - think big, aim for the moon and you might make the stratosphere.I have to live another 5 years to equal the one I'm seeing off tomorrow
Why settle on 5 years when 50 sounds a whole lot better.

My only comfort is that no one else seems to know what they are doing either. There must be somebody who is doing something useful and for the greater good. I'd like to meet him some day.

I know what you mean, I get paid for...I was past employability before I began. After 25 years I still haven't the faintest idea what I'm doing or why I'm getting paid to do it.

I intend living long enough to be a burden on my great grand kids!
