    Hi, I've got several additional items in the context menu when I right click in a text box. The items are: Right to left reading order Show Unicode control characters Insert Unicode control characters Open IME Is it possible to turn these off? I've looked through the regional settings and can't find anything, and I've googled, but all I get is the same few forum postings but no answers. [EDIT] Vista business if it makes any difference. [/EDIT]

    Cheers, Simon

        Thanks for the reply, but I've tried that and I can't find anything on the list that looks like it might be producing these menu items. I don't understand why they are there, I'm using an English version of Vista, set to use UK regional settings, so why is it offering an option to open an IME. I thought IME's were for complex languages with lots of characters.

            :) If in doubt, just press everything. Love it. I'll give it a try.
