Ctrl-Space Column Selection No Longer Working
Dman,
All Accessibility Options are turned off, always have been. I'm
throughly confused. I'm going to try Dave's suggestion of swapping
keyboards once I find a spare.
Thanks,
MPW

Recently, the Control+Space keyboard combination to select a
column in Excel (2003) stopped working. The Control and Space
keys work fine on their own and all other Control combinations
work. Shift+Space for row selection works also.
I have the same problem! Not only in excel, but in other programs
as well.
I can still do it this way:
Push RIGHT-CRTL+SPACE, release SPACE, push LEFT-CTRL, release
RIGHT-CRTL, push SPACE....
Any ideas? I think its a windows setting.
I'm wondering if you two haven't inadvertently turned on
Windows' Accessibility Options. (They can get turned on
if one absent-mindedly rests on one of the trigger keys,
such as Ctrl, for quite a few seconds.)
Go to the Control Panel and find Accessibility Options,
open them and turn them off if they're on. (And report
back here -- I'm now curious.)
