'Article ID: Q123683

Creation Date: 06-DEC-1994

Revision Date: 15-APR-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Excel for the Macintosh, versions 4.0, 5.0
 * Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Apple Adjustable Keyboard (Apple's ergonomic keyboard) with CAPS LOCK turned on, and you start Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Word, the CAPS LOCK light on the keyboard is turned off, although CAPS LOCK is actually still on.

Note that this problem also occurs when you switch to either of the above applications from another application.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Note that the CAPS LOCK indicator on the Apple Adjustable Keyboard is a light on the CAPS LOCK key; the CAPS LOCK key is not physically depressed when CAPS LOCK is turned on as it is on other Apple keyboards.

The Apple Adjustable Keyboard is manufactured by Apple Computers, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
