Are your fields in a MIAW?
If so I guess your fighting against a 'filed in a miaw feature' that cause some keyUp
events to be ignored. I've just done this test (D8 US/english, Win2k US/english, but
french/french keyboard+layout)
* create a simple movie, whith just a loop and a editable text field,
* put this simple behavior on the field :
on keyUp me
put the key
pass
end
* save it and open it as a miaw from a blank movie, type in the field... everything'ok
* do some mouseClics anyWhere on the stage or firectorbackGround, and click on the
field to set the keyBoard focus on it, then type some keys...

I don't remeber any easy workaround... so the first thing to do is mailing
wish-director ;)
If you're not using the field in a Miaw I don't know from where it comes.
