fractions etc.

[bridgenut]

Here is another way to get the fractions � � � .
If you go to 'Start ' then 'All programmes' then 'accessories' , then 'System Tools ' there should be 'Character Map' . Here there are about 100 different fonts , windings etc. Select the one(s) that you want , then copy then click with the mouse where you want the symbol to appear , then right click and select 'paste'

"Aq". Good wheeze, bridgenut. A bit slow, though. for 'sorts' in regular use I keep a list of the codes and use Alt.

Aquagility -

where do you get a list of codes from?

[johnalex]

Athenae - This is Code Page 437 English, which is one of the most common. Suggest you print it out for reference:

You will need to depress your Alt key, then enter the 3 digit code on your Number Pad (don't use the ones above QWERTY), then release Alt. Have fun, ♪♫♪ ☺ja

thanx johnalex

[kettledrum]

Bridgenut, I sincerely hope you haven't spent all this time looking for a more comprehensive answer to my earlier question. I am truly grateful.
& thank you too Johnalex - I have some of these codes stuck on bits of sticky paper round the edge of my screen - now I can peel them all off and leave nice white marks!

[kettledrum]

θανκς, βριδζνυτ! Wow ! It works! Thanks again - in plain english

Well..... I think that's a bit beyond me at the moment, Johnalex, but I can see I could have a lot of fun, if & when I have nothing better to do.
