Why SHIFT in Shortcuts in TextBox?

M

Morten Dahl

The shortcuts won't work in my application.
CTRL+Z
CTRL+C
CTRL+Y
CTRL+X
etc...


In stead I must use the SHIFT key:
CTRL+SHIFT+Z
CTRL+SHIFT+C
CTRL+SHIFT+Y
CTRL+SHIFT+X
etc...

Why?...

I want the first one. How?

I'm using VB 2005.

See the ShortcutsEnabled property.

The ShortcutsEnabled property is set to True and it works. The problem is
that I have to use the SHIFT key in shortcuts.

1) Copying text using CTRL+C won't work.
2) Copying text using CTRL+SHIFT+C works fine.

Why?...

The most common combination is the first one.

Weird. This happens with a minimal application? - Start VB2005, new
WinForms app, drop on a TextBox, run?

You haven't got a SHIFT-LOCK on your keyboard or something?

It works OK when I open a blank project. Weird...

Caps Lock is off.

I believe Larry was referring to Shift-Lock... aka Sticky Shift (an
accessibility setting for those that can't hold two keys down at once)

All fields in ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS | KEYBOARD are blank.
