I couldn't find this problem in the forums so if I missed it I'm sorry.
Whenever I try to enter text in a field in the object inspector (say for caption or object name), if I type a letter that has a property beginning with that letter it jumps to that property.
i.e., I type an "f" and the object inspector jumps to the Font property. Makes it impossible to do things.
