delete, enter, backspace does not work in visual studio 2005.

something very odd...

I have installed visual studio 2005 on my machine.
I created a console application with visual basic 2005 or C#.
I typed something in. tried to delete.. but i couldn't

I can't use enter, delete or tab for some odd reason....

this works perfectly fine with visual studio 6 and visual studio.net 2003 on
the same machine

what is this?
can anyone help?

Hi,
are you using VS2005 RTM/final version? (this kind of behaviour was a
known Beta 2 bug, although restarting VS IDE usually helped).

Yes, the final version.

I went to the launch event of microsoft and got a free standard edition of
visual studio 2005. I deinstalled the beta visual studio and beta framework.
installed the new version. and I can't do delete or enter... :-s

what to do.....

I'm almost certain that it's the previous Beta that's causing the trouble.
You can try deleting (or better - renaming) VS2005 keybinding file
(default.vsk) and re-starting the IDE. You'll find the keybinding file @
C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Application
Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\default.vsk.

If you're going to do some serious development with VS2005, I would strongly
recommend installing final version on a clean box.

Hope this helps.

prompt . and now I can use those buttons again.
