Something has stolen Ctrl + Spacebar

Hello

As above, my Ctrl + Spacebar for intellisense is not working in VI 6.0.

I have checked keyboard assignments and Ctrl + Space is listed for Edit ->
CompleteWord.

I added Ctrl + Shift + Space and that does work, but Ctrl + Space does not.

I removed Ctrl + Space thinking re-adding it might help, but now the
Options - Keyboard dialog does not even detect Ctrl + Space when I press it.

Some other App must have taken that Keyboard assignment. Is there any way I
can find out who/what and possibly re-assign it to VI?

I am on a freshly installed PC with XP Pro SP2 and Visual Studio 6 SP6.

Thanks in advance.

David

microsoft.publi c.vi.general as well as others. You don't see them? Try
refreshing your newsgroup list. If you still don't see them, it probably
means you are using a news server that does not propogate those groups.
Create a new account pointing at msnews.microsof t.com.
>Have found
some Visual Studio ones, will post there, although expect to be
berated for posting about an old version much like the ASP.NET guys
get treated in here.

I genuinely thought most people here would be ASP coders, coding
classic ASP with probably Classic ASP tools such as VI 6. Wish I
hadn't bothered, didn't realise I'd be the subject of such comments.

What comments? I think you're being way too sensitive. You cannot infer
a tone of voice or facial expression from reading an email. Why are you
assuming a malicious intent?

I am confused by the need to reply that those unhelpful posters have
inferred.

Ummm - I was trying to be helpful - pointing out that the groups were
still there may have prompted you to take another look allowing you to
find them this time. You are being way too sensitive.

Please reply to the newsgroup. The email account listed in my From
header is my spam trap, so I don't check it very often. You will get a
quicker response by posting to the newsgroup.

Thank you Bob.

If anyone else experiences this problem it might be down to Logitech
QuickCam software. Exit the tray program and all should be ok again.

I noticed that pressing spacebar when a listbox has the focus scrolls the listbox to the first selected item. I'm intercepting the spacebar press event at form level for stopping and starting audio playback, so I would like to remove the default behaviour form the listbox, and also from other buttons and controls. I tryed ( following a tutorial ) to subclass the listbox class, but I was able to intercept only mouseclicks, not the...

Hello -- Sometimes the code editor ignores the spacebar, and requires me to cursor through the line, after entering it, and hit the spacebar where I need a space. Has anyone experienced this? Can you tell me how to fix it? Thank you for any assistance.

I have three checkboxes lined up in a row on the dreaded datagrid. I have used the mouseup event to control whether or not the user can select a given box (i.e they can only select one box and they have to have one box selected)...basically working just as a radio button would do. My question is how can I use the same control for when the user tries to use the SpaceBar? My main concern here is that I cannot use addhandler to the boolcol...
