Works on my Legacy7 entering into notes etc. Alternate website "http://adsorption.org/awm/info/pl-codes.htm#kbd-table"; same info. Some keyboard/PC/OS combinations may return a couple of odd characters in which case add a preceding zero to the three number code. eg Alt 0XXX instead of Alt XXX where XXX is the three digit code for the character you want.
