Hi, GrahamSkan. I think you may have misunderstood the OP's question. I think he is asking about the
Categories
and
Commands
being greyed out. Any ideas on that?

Thanks Let's Go. You might well be right.
If the problem is independent of the document chosen, see if the fixes in this article help.

I DID NOT press the CTRL key. That's the problem. I was madly pressing A, b, c, d, etc. but not the CTRL key.
Your help has saved me hundreds of hours of internet surfing.

Yes, you must start with a key that doesn't input a text character.
