language bar bug

[Kevin Mortimer]

HI

My clients are reporting this "bug" more and more and I cannot seem to figure out if it is my solution or a bug in filemaker. What seems to be happening is the default keyboard changes to USA if UK was default.This only seems to be the case in filemaker eg In flemaker ( UK keybaord is default ) you select Shift 2 and expect to get a " but instead you get a @ but then you go to word and select shift 2 and you get a "

Why if you have UK as default keyboard do you get an @ symbl when yo select shift 2.

I cannot test this bug as it seems to happen randomly. Could the system formats affect this. It looks like the system formats only look at date time and number formats and not keyboard...is this correct.

Anyone had this isse before?

Mainly happens on Windows xp using filemaker 8.5 and 9. It could be happening on Vista to.

Not sure if this can be Window setting, but on the Macintosh, it is a system choice for Keyboard and Mouse.

Hi

Yes there is a system setting in control panels under "Regional and langues settings" but filemaker seems to ignore it. Word and other programs still use default keyboard except filemaker
