hell yeah I remember ... BOY do I :biggrin: (kidding - you were fine xx).

Perhaps this would be an opportune time for me to explain the function (on pc's) of the ALT key, as you can use it to activate what are called ASCII codes (not EVERY accent, but the ß is included for sure).

To activate codes like ß, simply hold the LEFT ALT KEY on your keyboard, tap in 225 on the numeric keypad, and then RELEASE the left alt key and whammo !!

ß

Easy peasy.

There are others of course - you can download a full list from t'internet ... e.g. Alt + 129 = ü, and Alt + 139 = ï.

Cheers boys,

!?!?! Shadow !?!?!

P.s. Skyguyx5, I was always under the impression that the Germans would accept (if you're translitterating ß as ss ?) I hope so at any rate, as I've been telling my colleagues that for nigh on a decade :redface:. I keep saying "if you cannot display ß the Germans will consider ss its phonetic equivalent, just as putting an e after an umlaut is acceptable - e.g. wünsche would be wuensche".

Is that wrong ?? :redface:.
