I'll be happily editing away when suddenly alternate characters start appearing. For example I'll try and type the "#" character and get an "/" instead, and so on.
I have no idea what key sequence I type to trigger this switch, and have never been able to find out how to get back to 'normal' without closing and restarting the app.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance.

Is there a keypress that switches to icelandic which I don't know about :-)
Your obviously an ex borland person too !!
you are probably pressing F9 (borland compile-and-run) which actually switches to some sort of extended text function, pressing F9 again fixes it
Hope that helps

Aha!
One of the many dangers of using Outlook (F9=send/receive) at work :)
