Hi Guys...had a problem in Dreamweaver the other day relating to Keyboard Shortcuts not working from the 'Keypad'...posted the question on the Adobe forum and received this answer...

You can't use numeric keypad with CTRL key because those keys are meant to be used alone for inserting numbers.


To use CTRL key plus the number, you should always use the numbers in line one of the keyboard (assuming you are using standard English keyboard - US, Australian or UK).

All key combinations are meant to be used from the main keyboard (NOT from number keypad). This is Windows default settings.

I questioned his response and got a 'That's how it is' in reply.

I personally don't think this is the case...but I will bow to superior knowledge...can anyone enlighten me ..and them.

Cheers John M
