Ok, I incorrectly guessed Beta (Chaos Master told me how to get
special characters and it doesn't work here)

Doesn't ALT0223 on the numeric keypad, with Num Lock on, work?
ßßß


ß
yeah. Chaos uses ctrl+alt+m for mu, etc. and that didn't work but
rang a bell.

I checked unicode and character map and it says the unicode number
is 03B0 or 944

? == that's 03B0 or 944 obviously not ß (0223)
? == that's 0994
¯ == 223 a bar |
ß == 0223 beta | these two foul me up. the leading zero matters.


ok 03b0 is for arial and 0223 is for courier. I didn't know unicode
encoded the font, just language or locale. i see it doesn't for the
standard ascii chars. odd, really.

It's all hex. no decimal charts on MSDN CD. ok another instance of
the sci calculator on the desktop where the reader sits won't hurt
or just paste from char map.

Thanks for the clue, John. Sorry if I'm still a bit clueless.
