Repeat Operations
 
I used to be able to use the F4 key to repeat an operation; e.g. I could
delete a row and then, by pressing F4, I could delete another row. F4 would
usually repeat a function ~8 times. Suddenly one day, that stopped working
and pressing F4 after an operation does nothing. Can I turn the F4
functionality back on somehow? Thanks

Adam,

I've seen this occur when clients install Market Data applications like
Reuters or Bloomberg on their PC's.

You're dead on -- I installed Bloomberg on this machine. Is there a way to
get the F4 to work with Bloomberg installed or are the two incompatible?
Thanks

I believe if you can avoid using the DDE functionality and use the RTD or API
services, you should be able to get your F4 functionality back.

I've had enough trouble with Bloomberg, that I wouldn't dare try to modify
their settings. Thanks again.
