Before I blame the keyboard I was wondering if anyone could check on their system to see if they have problems with the same key. I haven't checked the keyboard.spin program yet to see if that key is not being decoded.

Thanks for the input. I rechecked my keyboard and when I depress "caps lock" I also get "^" displayed on the screen just as you described. However I also get upper case letters so I think the problem is in the keyboard.spin program.
