I have had a problem with MS-Word 3.01 twice in the last two weeks and
unfortunately I cannot reproduce it.
While typing I use a lot of short-cuts. Now it has happened twice that I
cannot use the short-cuts Shift-Command-S (enter a style name in the lower
left box) and Command-backspace (enter a glossary name in the lower left
corner) anymore. Everything else works perfect. When I try to type one of the
shortcuts, the lower left corner flashes very shortly, but it is impossible
to type in a name. Going through the menu works fine. When I quit Word and
restart it, my problem is gone. BTW I run everything in the switcher.
My guess is that I type some magic unknown short-cut (a typing error on my
side), that messes things up.
Lights anyone?
Thanks in advance.
