[Dixielandjazz] Encore question

[John Farrell]

Many thanks to Larry Swain and Tony Davis for solving my copyright symbol
problem - Alt+0169 does the trick (I wonder what happened to the Alt+3000
which I have been using for ages?), now I
can breathe again. Bob Smith's suggested Alt+184 didn't work on my machine,
I suppose it could be yet another of those XP incompatibility things.

What a list!!

John:

I am unfamiliar with Encore, but in other applications (this machine
runs Win 2000 Pro, and what I am about to say works on another
running Win XP Pro) when I type ALT-0169 I get ©.  Must use the
numeric keypad on the keyboard, not the one above the letter keys.
