What does the manufacturer spec call for? I think most have a minimum of about 40. If it can be knocked out in a day or two of warmer sunny weather, you'd be OK, but it it is staying cold where you are, best to wait for spring. |

I'd only do it in weather that cold if I HAD to, and only if it was sunny clear weather. If it is leaking in one area, I'd be inclined to sacrifice a couple cheap Harbor Freight tarps, and just tarp that part of the roof till spring. Yes, it is definitely hillbilly, but it works. -- aem sends... |

Hold down the ALT key, and using the numeric keypad, type 0186 and you will get , the degree sign.

I cheated and cut an pasted that one. |

The one I asked for is a simple letter o with a flat line above it. As used in dictionary to show the o in "tone" is a long o. Not sure if this will work, but instead of my o with a line above it, I see my post shows this symbol ō instead. |

Is you app using "Latin-1 Western European" (the column next to Part 1, Part 2, etc) at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_8859 What char came back? May have to compare it to the sets in part 2-16. May be way off but that's how I would approach it. |
