only one thing I can suggest. When I set mine up using the getting started wizard, I selected UK extended. I don't know why I did, but I was playing on a hunch that the differences in keyboard layout on this machine might have something to do with it. If possible, find and select UK extended layout and your problems should be solved.----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Nutt" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2009 10:00 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: NetbooksHi,Yes, on the Samsung NC10 I have here, you have to press the function key to get colon. The keyboard is UK English, so I don't quite know what is goingon here.

The keyboard is a little different yes, but noway is the colon fn plus right shift. Are you sure you have the keyboard layout set correctly? colon is semicolon shifted if I'm not mistaken *smile*.----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 03, 2009 5:55 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: NetbooksDon't apologise Steve.

I prefer the MSI Wind, even over the Samsung Netbook. it has a nicer keyboard, and the right shift is in the right place, an annoyance to me with the Samsung. The other thing about the Samsung is that you have to press the FN key with the shift key if you want a colon, otherwise you seem to get a dash. 'orrible machine. Sorry Jackie, I don't like it <Smile>.
