Archived from groups: microsoft>public>excel>crashesgpfs (more info?)

When I type the "2" digit and then type "enter", the "2" turns into "4".
This also happens in Word. It does not happen with any other digit and only
occurs in Office. It does not occur in any other applications. Norton
Anti-Virus scan shows no viruses in my computer. I did Detect&Repair with no
results and then uninstalled and re-installed Microsoft Office and the
problem still exists. I use Microsoft Office XP Small Business-Version 2002.
Thanks.

Did you try a different keyboard?

Hi Bill,

> When I type the "2" digit and then type "enter", the "2" turns into "4".

Sounds like the 2 got listed in Autocorrect (tools, autocorrect). Look in that
list and remove the entry.
