Hi Roger,
you have to press 'ALT' key and with this key pressed, type a code in the
numeric keys on the right. You can see the code for each character at
http://www.geocities.com/chofeta/Caracteres.html
You have to type first the number in the row and then the number in the col.
ie: if you want to have a '|' simbol, you can get it pressing ALT + 124.
This web page is in Spanish (espaņol). If you have any problem, e-mail-me
You can also buy a Spanish keyboard as mine :-)
Bye
