Keyboard bug

I am unable to use the enter, backspace, delete, up, down, left, and right keys in .cpp and .h files.  This is fixed if I close the file, then re-open it.  However, if I siwtch focus to a different file, then go back, I will once again be unable to use those keys, and will have to close the file and re-open it again.  Does anyone know if there is a patch to fix this, and if not, I guess this should be added to the list of bugs to fix.  I have not checked this with any other files, but I would assume that it is just as bad with other files.

Thanks,

    What version

    It is clearly not an issue that is encountered by many customers, otherwise it would have been brought up before. Can you install on a different machine to see whether you get the same effects

    This is actually a well-known issue in Beta 2. Check out this blog post for more information.

    I am using 2005 Beta 2.  Yes, my friend had the same thing happen to him yesterday.
