| 699323 | 2008-08-22 10:03:00 | Evening all, I am here again to tap your brains. In MS Word, I type the first line, and hit enter. The insertion point jumps to the bottom of the page. The only way to go one line at a time is to hold down the shift key, then hit enter. Any ideas?? I have done a repair from the instal disc, to ensure all files are intact, but it still does it. Most frustrating. |

| 699324 | 2008-08-22 10:05:00 | Is StickyKeys on? The reason I ask is that Ctrl+Enter triggers a page break. |

| 699325 | 2008-08-22 10:10:00 | Pardon my ignorance, but what are sticky keys? Is shift +enter the same as ctrl+enter? |

| 699326 | 2008-08-22 10:13:00 | StickyKeys means you can press Ctrl+any key (and Alt and Shift) while pressing one at a time. Press the left Shift key five times to see if Sticky keys is enabled. Press them and you'll see ;) |

| 699327 | 2008-08-22 10:24:00 | no, They were off. Pressing shift 5 times turned them on, so i pressed cancel, as dialog box, and turned them off |

| 699328 | 2008-08-22 10:35:00 | Does Word still have the same problem?? | jwil1 (65) | ||

| 699330 | 2008-08-22 23:11:00 | Have a look at Format / Paragraph / Line and Page breaks – “page break before.” If that is ticked you need to untick it. |

| 699331 | 2008-08-22 23:41:00 | And if that setting was embedded in your normal.dot template then you would need to amend and save the template to make that a default setting. | coldot (6847) | ||
| 699332 | 2008-08-23 03:12:00 | Hi, No the only item ticked was widow/orphan control, whatever that is. I wonder if I removed then re-installed word 2003, if that would fix it. It is the only program that does it. If you press enter in say, outlook express, or word pad, or in works, you only go to the next line. Just a hassle to re-install because of all the updates that load. But if that is what is needed, so be it. |
