No, but you should be able to hit Undo and roll it back.

If that doesn't work, do a set of Find-and-Replace to get them swapped back.

Replace @ with something else, say ^
Replace * with @
Replace your placeholder, ^, with *

Then check to see if it's all happy and nice.

No, undo doesn't recognise that anything happened, and I can type the wrong button to get the right result, so I don't need find and replace, which would be a fiddly way to get round it.

I've tried a system restore, but it doesn't think I've changed anything, and I tried Googling how to swap keyboard key functions, but got nothing helpful.

This happened once before at the place where I worked, and IT knew how to swap them back. I can't remember how you do it. It's one of those things the computer steadfastly denies all knowledge of. I shall continue to glare at it, and get used to typing the ... Hang on, now I've logged off and on again, it's fixed itself.

Ignore me. I'm fixed. Yay! :-D And thanks for the advice, too.

Ah, I misunderstood the problem -- I thought the text in your document had been swapped around, and I gather the key functions themselves had swapped instead. Bad keys! *smack*

I didn't realise it was a key functions thing - I thought you meant in the actual text, dope that I am. :D Still, glad you sorted it out!
