[bcab] Re: The Pound Sign

Hi Brian,

It gets a bit more complicated when using North American
versus British keyboard layouts.

I don't believe you actually have a designated Pound
Currency Symbol on your keyboard.  On ours, this is shifted
3 on the top row of numbers.

George.

Hi George:

Just tried entering 156 and found when I did, and read what
I had
entered, Jaws said 163 pounds!

So Jaws is doing a translation of sorts on the extended
characters I input.

Am running Windows XP service Pack 2 Home Edition.
