mystery solved

it was getting a bit weird as I could use the ''''''''' key quite happily when first turning the lappy on but after a while it would stop. bodged it up by using the `````````key instead which I didn't even know I had

now I've figured that tableninja thinks I have the apostrophe set as a hotkey so whenever I press it it tries to do something rather than type. the only problem is I can't see what I've got it set to do in order to fix it. may have to keep using ````` when playing pokerz

'Having TN switched on at the time' would've been useful information in trying to help you solve this problem.

ldo but I didn't notice it was only when that was running. only figured it today because tn decided to start warning me that the hotkey was already assigned every time I pressed it, wish it had thought to do that a week ago
