Hello,
I have a take that contains "TextSelections" and an ID field. I use an
AutoKeys macro (^K) to select from these and then copy and paste into my data
entry form. One day last week, this AutoKeys feature ceased to work. My
program depends heavily on text selections.
2 questions: 1) Why does it no longer work? and 2) Is there some code I
can run that would substitute for the macro?
Thanks in advance.
 
You're going to have to explain what a "take" is, and a little more
description of how your app is supposed to work.

Sorry, let me rephrase the question (without the typos):
I have a table that contains the fields "Number" and "Text." I use the
table as a record source for a continuous form that allows the user to select
a text that they want to use in a data entry form. Fron this data entry
form, the use the keystroke combination ^K which, using an AutoKeys macro,
pops up the text selection form from which they select the text they want
entered into the data entry form. The code then copies and pastes the
selected text back into the original data entry form, obviating a lot of
repetitious typing. It has worked great for months but now I have a problem:
The AutoKeys macro ^K no longer works.
I've tried deleting the specific ^k macro action and redoing it; tried
other key combinations; even tried deleting Autokeys and re-doing the whole
macro but nothing works.
My questions are: 1) What the heck happened here? and 2) Is there code
that one can use thet does the same thing as the Autokeys macro?
Sorry I wasn't clear earlier, and thanks.
