Help! and Go to last edit position
Hi all
Word 2000 (I know it's old but both these functions used to work!) If I select any topic in the Help, nothing happens.Might my help file have shifted to somewhere else? Where can I look for or get it? Where should it be? Shift F5, I think used to take me to the place I was last at when the document was open. This doesn't seem to work now. TIA |

The classic reason is that you have enabled the WordPerfect options under
Tools, Options, General tab. Deselect them and then all your keyboard shortcuts should work correctly again. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "AR88 Enthusiast" wrote in message ...

That suggests a third party add-in that is interfering with the GoBack (and
possibly other) command(s). Test to see if it functions with Word in Safe Mode. From Start | Run (Winkey+R), type in winword /a and press enter. Open and edit a document and test the GoBack command now. Does it work? If it doesn't, check the keyboard allocation for the GoBack command to ensure that it hasn't been accidentally removed or changed. Terry "AR88 Enthusiast" wrote in message ...
