Thanks for replying, Mexage. The version of Excel I use is part of the Office
XP package so I guess it must be Excel XP version.

I will have a check on the "add-in" components and "toolbars" components
later today.

Hope your tips will help to solve the mystery.

Cheers
Ken

Dear Gord and Ken:

The reason I asked you to vote for my post _in_case_it_helps_ is to make
this board more useful. If you guys vote for a post that is helpful, people
having the same problem will have less trouble searching for accurate
solutions. Ken, I wouldn't want you to vote for my post if it wasn't helpful
to you.

About your problem, perhaps you have an excel Add-in that takes that
shortcut. An Add-in is a program that runs in excel to perform certain tasks.
Examples of Add-ins are Excel Analysis Add-in, Lookup Add-in, among others.

To check which Add-ins you have installed (or perhaps another program has)
click on Tools, then on Add-ins... There you will see a list of available
Add-ins and a check mark to the left of the ones that are activated.

Try deactivating some of them. Perhaps one of them has the same shortcut
assigned to something else. Also virus scan your machine, to see if there is
a macro virus in your system.

What version of Excel are you using? That might be important.

Finally, check for any new toolbars you might have; go to Tools, then
Customize and check for an unfamiliar toolbar. If it's activated, try
deactivating it.

Well, I hope that helps, and if it doesn't DON'T vote for my post...

Have a nice day!
