Michael,

Are you sure it is a keyboard mapping issue, and not a font issue? If you type 'DISPLAY STATUS' and hit return (of course you have to be careful, since you can't see what you are typing *grin*), does the output to the screen look normal?

Have you tried deleting the foxuser.dbf file and restarting VFP?

Quotes turn into some weird symbol. When this happens, it's only in VFP, when I switch to another app and type, my key mapping is fine. It happens everywhere in VFP, the command window, code window, etc. If I shut down VFP7 and restart it, it runs fine for another 5-10 mins and then the same thing happens. I'm running XP Pro, VFP7 and everything is up to date. I was thinking a possible virus, but the latest Norton definitions show nothing. Thanks.
