if "1" is typed it shows "!" and vice versa (1 Viewer)

[Happy YN]

A user has complained that in one particular text box, if she types a "1" it shows as "!" and vice versa. This is only in one textbox and only if she types a 1 not 2 or 3 etc. moreover the box is set for numbers only yet it accepts the "!".
The capitals or shift are not being pressed!
I cannot emulate this on my pc with the identical form. Any ideas?
Thanks

can you post the DB?

it does sound like something funny with a SHIFT - perhaps she is accidentally pressing it? i do that a lot myself...

but why just with no.1?
and why does the text box accept it if is set for a number?
Thanks

no idea, it's baffled me. can you post the DB for a closer look? even more mysterious is why it works on one computer and not another - perhaps it's a computer setting, not a DB issue, per se.

Sounds like sticky keys...... try pluging another keyboard into the CPU.... bet it doesn't do it then........
