Handy ASCII codes

1. Make sure the "num lock" indicator is on
2. Hold down the Left Hand "Alt" Key
3. Enter 3 or 4 digit character number on NUMERICAL keyboard.

eg...

164 = ñ (peña)

167 = º (45º)

Hours of fun for all the family....

cheers

Ron

Ailsa,

When you hit the a,e,i,o or u key, hold down the "alt gr" key on the RH side next to the space bar.

I didnt know about the "Alt Gr" key trick. On the spanish keyboard is a ( ´) Key that you press before the vowel and the accent comes up automatically.

Is there a list somewhere of all the ASCII codes. I mean how do you know which ones are which. I assume you dont learn them all.

Well Pim,

Scottish schools were very strict and we had to learn them off by heart and recite them quickly and without hesitation, or face punishment.

For others, there is a link here:
