Charmap

This is useful.

Start/Run

Type in charmap.

Copy/paste into a document.

Saves hunting around for them and doing all those Alt/shifts.

Thanks Saxman. Now I can devise some superb passwords.

The CharMap (Character Map) Utility is also available from the
normal Start Menu...

Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools

& if it isn't there, you can easily make a Shortcut to it & put
the Shortcut where ever you want - on the Start Menu, on the Desktop
or where ever you want.

(Post back for details about how to make a Shortcut, (to CharMap
or anything else) if you aren't sure about how to do that).

& once you have a Shortcut, (anywhere, such as on the Start Menu
or Desktop) you can also make it (or any Shortcut) available directly,
by just Pressing a Key on the Keyboard (with CTRL+ALT)

Highlight the Shortcut, RightClick it & choose "Properties"

Look in the "Shortcut Key: " Field in the Properties of it.
That will be showing as "None"

Click in the "Shortcut Key: " Field & then Press a Key - the Key that
you want to use.

Maybe use "C"? - Though I use that for the Calculator Utility -
So use "M" for the CharMap thingy.

The Field will then change to show "CTRL + ALT + M" (or whatever Key
you Press)

Click [OK]

Then you can just Press CTRL+ALT+M at any time (& in any Program!!!)
- But see [*1] below - To bring up the Character Map Utility
(& Press CTRL+ALT+C to bring up the Calculator, if you set "C" as
the Shortcut Key for that)

[*1]
If a particular Program already uses the Key Combination (that you
choose for the Shortcut), then when you're in *that* Program, the
Program's own thing will take precedence.
