It shows the circonflex beautifully here. But I just checked View|Character Set and ISO-8859-1 is checked. Which is the 'best' character set to use on a regular basis to see the non-keyboard ascii characters and hopefully, English, Spanish and French language differences? In English, I noticed some quotes in the taglines show up as squares here. -- Regards, :Maggie: :tbflaga2: 'You cannot achieve the impossible without attempting the absurd.

Thomas, maybe the Universe is saying that you should not be typing in French anything that says that you're the master of the house? You tagline under the cut said: "Money can't buy happiness but it can certainly rent it for a couple of hours." Maybe for a guy. :gdr: -- Regards, Maggie :tbflaga2: ?Prophecy is a guess that comes true. When it doesn't, it's a metaphor.?

The symbols are below. The first is the Alt+0238 producing the plain o. The next one is the Alt+0161 for the inverted exclamation point. The third is the inverted question mark. As you can see, none are shown correctly. о ? Џ -- Cheers, Maggie Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
