Is your system completely protected from Excel? 2.2 turns on the num lock light, and only turns it off if you ask it to (by hitting SHIFT-CLEAR which is actually labelled num lock), or quit (i.e., not if you switch applications or launch a DA). It would actually make sense if the light stayed on by default, since the keypad seems to be in "num lock" mode by default. -- Philip Machanick philip@pescadero.stanford.edu
