Outlook will open up Word when I am writing an email. I tend to type
fast, and somewhat sloppily, so I may inadvertently be hitting a
wrong key. Anyway, mid-message, the caps lock will reverse and type
in all caps when it's not turned on. And then if I do turn it on, it
will type lower case. I try all kinds of alt, ctrl, shift combos,
but nothing works.

Then to make it worse, it also affect opening up emails in my inbox,
or even clicking on icons on my desktop. It will then open
EVERYTHING - all the emails above what I select in the Inbox; or if
on the desktop, then ALL the icons/programs open.

Can you help? The only thing that has worked for me is to Shut Down
and Restart.

This sounds more like a keyboard issue than an Outlook issue, to me.
