º ¢ Thanks for sharing, learn something every day. I just do the same things on my computer all the time, nice to pick up a few pointers!

The scale that I use is found here: http://www.asciitable.com/ I have XP and they work for me, so I printed it out for easy reference. Will also print out information from the other sites.

The secret is remembering the code.

Easier said than done! lol I keep a spiral bound index card book to jot things down to remember, easier to refer to that than the wear and tear on my brain!!! Just sayin'

It doesn't work on my laptop either. I'll try on my desktop at work. Thanks for the tip though.

I have an HP Vista - doesn't work on mine! See? Nothing! Edie

Sorry but it doesn't work for me.

Thanks! I didn't know that but always wished I could do it.

that was cool but it did not work on my computer. Why?

Weird. It doesn't work on the regular keyboard but if I jump to the other side and use the number pad it works fine.

Always wondered how to make the ¢ sign. Thanks a bunch.
