Re: [WDSCI-L] RDI 9.5.1.1 Delete key LOCKING up AGAIN... Only does
not work in RDI 9.5.1.1

Jim,

Thanks! Good suggestion!

I must admit I had some darn flaky problem with keyboard mapping,
and it was due to my "soft-Phone" that runs on my laptop using the
same keyboard-shortcuts as RDI! Ouch! Many years ago...

I was so thankful that issue was resolved! Sadly, I cannot remember
Exactly what it was. Since I just removed the keyboard mapping from
my "soft-phone" problem RESOLVED...

That is the problem with windows, so many different thinks to track

down!

PS. I will run Anti-virus scan on my company issued laptop tonight.

Ken,
I had that happen a few years ago and it was because of a virus on
my PC. It was so invasive I ended up taking it in to a shop to have
it fixed. And the virus was not being detected in my anti-virus sw.
You might want to check into that.

That's IT's classic response to everything...just restart it...

The Delete issue has been a prior occurrence to me as well but since
I have upgraded to 9.5.1 I have had zero occurrences of it. I don't
know if it's because I started a new workspace or changed a
preference that would prevent something like that from happening
again. Kind of like my Windows issue on my home PC where it keeps
turning on the proxy settings when a certain application starts up
and I can't get my internet to work anymore until I undo it. I
can't recall if there was something I did which in turn would fix
your problem, but I know it might take some time to isolate the root
cause given it happens at random times and infrequently I might add.
You make one setting change, not experience the issue for some time,
and believe it is therefore fixed, then resurfaces (and applying
Murphy's Law, at the worst possible moment).

Have either of you tried starting with the "-clean" switch when there's a
problem? I've found it can work wonders without having to set up a new
workspace. (It retains connections, filters, preferences, perspective
layouts, etc. I know much of this can be exported from one workspace and
imported to another, but it seems to me this is even simpler.)
