Have you tried using uppercase? I seem to recall someone saying they always use the caps keys to get over this. _________________ Dennis

Dennis is on the right lines.
From a post I made back in January....
You cannot use the PC keyboard to enter postcodes in "Navigate to..."
... UNLESS you use the 'shift' key for the first letter only.
On other words, if you hold down the shift key on the PC keyboard while you enter the first letter of the postcode, then you can enter the rest of the postcode as normal.
If you want, you can keep the shift key held down for the rest (even while you enter the numbers - which is odd) but it isn't necessary; just doing it for the first letter seems to "bump" the program into life.
But 'caps lock' doesn't work.....
It's a bug that was reported over a year ago, but has never been fixed! |
