Hi - how do you add the Pound sign or Euro sign or other ASCII characters to your message text?

My keyboard only displays $ signs.

Thanks Mark - why didn't I think of that

hold down the ALT key and on the numeric keypad type 0163, let go of ALT and you'll get a £ sign

The ALT button holds many secrets... try it you might like it! Hold ALT (or ALT GR) whilst pressing a host of other keys - you'll see loads...

Incidentally - the pound sign is SHIFT 3

Not necessarily so, in South Africa!
