I notice that if I open the COMMENTS window in RB and start typing anything, trying to enter a space between words will always start the song (even though the comments window has focus)
Also, every time I enter a dash "-" it changes the project tempo. There may be other hotkeys that are activating features when typed instead of just being entered as text when the comments window has focus, but I have tested the space and dash, and the phenomenon repeats.

Pat,
Please watch the opening splash screen or select "About" under the Help menu bar selection and provide the year and build number you're using.

Pat,
I assume from the thread title that you are referring to RB2021.
If so. I can confirm that, for me, the space bar starts playback, but the dash behaves correctly.

In the message title I specified RB 2021. As of this time there have been no updates to RB 2021 yet, so I'm referring to the version 1 that anyone who has RB 2021 would have

Vintage Hey my friend! Good to hear from you! Interesting to note that on two separate occasions trying to type a dash in the comments window resulted in a change of project tempo. But today it ain't happening. On either computer where I have RB 2021 installed. However, if I try to type an R, the active track starts to Record. Not sure how many other single letter hotkeys there are, but the main take-away here is that the hotkeys procedure needs to deactivate when the comments window is in focus.

Good Morning,
Just had another quick look after reading your last post. Looks like most of the common hot key letters are active.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
