CTRL and shortcut keys not working

In Word 2000, I can no longer use my ctrl key. It
worked fine this morning!!! I have been searching around
for a couple of hours, and I can't figure out how I
inadvertently turned off the function. The two "windows"
keys & the other key with a picture (a sheet of paper with
an arrow) don't work, either. everything else seems to be
okay. Tools/Customize doesn't help. Re-starting doesn't
help. Nothing has helped. HELP!!!

thanks.

Do these keys work outside of Word - in other programs? If not, try a new
keyboard.
