   Sam, I would need a lot more detail about exactly what you want. I don’t know how to do what you want off the top of my head.

   Norma, sorry that I can’t help you unless you tell me which key you’re confused by.

   Hans, on many computers, you can configure the power button (on the laptop or desktop) to be a stand by button. Failing that, try Ctrl+Alt+Del, then press S to Shut Down, use the up and down arrows until you find Hibernate, then press Enter.

   I would love to use F7 for spellcheck, but nothing happens when I tap it. Could it be disabled somehow? And if so, how would I enable it? Thanks!

   PS - Your website is so helpful to this newbie!!

   I can not return to the regular keystrokes on my laptop. Some how I have activated the function(?) that allows me to type a (*) instead of p. I would like to return to normal. The lower letters are displayed- o istead of m. Please help me resolve this ?

   Denise, which program are you using when you try F7 and it doesn’t work? Not every program has spell check, unfortunately. Try it in Word.

   cporche, I think this is going to depend on your keyboard. Perhaps you’ve hit the Fn lock key on your laptop?

    Reboot doesn’t fix it? Your Fn key is probably stuck down. Try hitting it a few times. Also try switching off Num Lk and Scroll Lk.

    Does anyone know if there are keyboard shortcut keys for formatting in PowerPoint using a Mac running the Leopard OS? Am getting so tired of having to mouse using the formatting palette … No shortcut keys shown in the dropdown format menu. I know the basic shortcut keys, I’m trying to find the formatting shortcuts - if they exist for the Mac version of ppt. Ready to go back to my PC just to use the keyboard instead of the mouse.
