M-Text Box Caps Lock Always on

[ek_ferguson]

Weird problem and it's driving me crazy and none of the CAD guys in my office have any ideas...

This morning my computer, well AutoCAD ADT 2004, decided that everytime I opened an existing M-Text box or created a new one, that my computer's caps lock would come on. It will not turn off, I press caps lock and it blinks, coming back on. Once I close the text box, the caps lock will turn off. To type lowercase letters, I must hold the caps lock button down.

Does anyone have any ideas what this is, why, or how to stop it?

Thanks

What is RC in M-Text editor window area? As of yesterday, AutoCAPS was not turned on, however, I do not know how to turn it on/off and the ADT help menu tells what it is, but not how to turn the function on or off. Can you elaborate?

RC = right-click

I don't 04 install to check; this is coming from memory and 07 has AutoCAPS
(but it does NOT turn on the CAPSLOCK light on my computer. Sorry it this
does not help.

Sadly, I do have 2004 installed, and AutoCAPS does turn the caps lock light on and off on my computer. I did not even know that option was there [but I did know what RC meant]. I have learned something new today, so I guess I can go home now. 😉

I got it fixed--I'm happy now, I'm not prepared to go postal on my computer anymore.

Thanks for all your help.
