Hi,

Can anyone help me with the special characters. When I need to insert one in text they are shown in character tables as "U + number", but when I hold down "U" key all I get is a line of Us?

Is "U" a special key and which one is it please?

I know how to insert characters by copying form the table, but it is quicker to type the code, if I only knew the key for "U".

Many thanks,

Alex
