Things get curiouser and curiouser. This is the second time I've gone to put a degree symbol into my message (ALT + 2,4,8,) and the whole darn thing has gone off to never land. Jack |

Durned if I know. I always use Alt 0186º but Alt 248° works too. Maybe you busted your Alt button. _________________ TyBoo Mike

Hey,
What are you talking about. I tried that and got 123 and 48.
Did I hold my mouth wrong?

¡™£¢∞§¶•ªº–≠
œ∑´®†¥¨ˆøπ“‘
åß∂ƒ©˙∆˚¬…æ
Ω≈ç√∫˜µ≤≥÷
(Rows 1-4 of keys in order with the alt button.)
So, ººººººººººº = 0+alt, 10 times.
+ I have two alt buttons on my MacMazingMachine!
?????? So hows that?

GOLLY DOG!!! I think my DELL keyboard is haunted. Alt +7 Puts me into Internet Explorer....I knew Bill would get me sooner, or later. Must have been some fancy keyboard drivers that I blew away when I gutted this thing... I got tired of tripping over all of the garbage that came installed and put in a "Clean" version of 'XP when I ramped up the system Funny, I use those key strokes all of the time in Word, or Outlook Express. Thanks guys, just thought I'd ask. Jack |

Ok,
So am I supposed to hit Alt then the + sign and then a key such as the q or the z key? Or do you hold down the Alt and then hold shift and hit the + and a letter.
Any combination I have tried gets me commands, not symbols.
Precise directions would help. I am running XP pro with a microsoft keyboard.
Thanks,
Larry H |

Larry-
To get what I got, I simply held the alt key down and then hit the other key.
The alt key plus the 0 (zero) key yields the º degree sign.
I get different ones when I also hold down the shift key as well as the alt key.
alt + the shift key, + the 7 key gets ‡ ...... and so forth.
Crazy computers!
