Every time i hit the space bar in word, the previous word
is repeated. Any help on ending this problem would be
appreciated.

Go to Tools | Customize | Keyboard... Select any command (it doesn't matter
since this is just for testing purposes) and, in the box that says "Press
new shortcut key," type a space. This probably won't do any good (Word won't
let me enter a space there), but in case it does, check to see whether
EditRedoOrRepeat is given for "Currently assigned to." Although that would
be very bizarre, it's the only explanation I can think of.

In a roundabout way using your discussion I discovered
that F4 equals space bar and was able to eliminate that
command from EditRedoOrRepeat. Thank you. Now, I'm trying
to find out how to remove F4 from my web browser because
everytime I hit space bar in an email or search, the
cursor goes to the address bar.
