    I have a keyboard problem, the shift button acts like it is held in

    Thanks for your suggestions. SFC found no problems. I recently installed CCleaner (which is great freeware BTW), and run it regularly, so no problems with temporary files. Had no keyboard issue for about a week, maybe CCleaner is helping. Will post if problem reoccurs.

    Automation embedding error

    Hi, I'm using Excel 2000 as the client, Word 2000 as the server. The Word document only contains textboxes. These textboxes are filled using VBA code in Excel. They are filled OK, but occasionally (maybe once or twice in 20 tries) when I click the Print button in Word I get a gpf in...
