I am using an English Keyboard but it prints a "Hash" sign instead of a "Pound" sign.
Also the "@" key prints inverted commas and the "Inverted" commas key prints the "@".
Anybody know how I change them around?
Thanks.

That's an 'American' keyboard that you have 'underneath'. There was an American one in an internet cafe that I visited. There you had to get '@' by pressing the shift key and 2 as you would do to get " on a British keyboard. Incidentally 'pound sign' in American does not mean £ but some other symbol ( the 'hash', # , I think, in which case you have a transatlentic joke of some subtlety ) On my British keyboard the £ sign is above the '3' on the same key. I bet that's where the # sign is on an American keyboard The hash, #, on this keyboard is well away , three keys from 'L' in the second row of letters.

So it sounds as though, whatever the British symbols are on the keyboard you have, the computer is currently set up to respond to the keys of an American keyboard. (Not a lot of help , I grant, but it's a start )

Pinched from another forum

quote:

Go to Control panel/regional and language options/ and from there you can get your @ back in the place you want it. [You click on the arrow on the end of the box and choose your country and it will automatically change the keyboard set up.]

Can also change it over by pressing the Left ALT KEY and the Left shift Key together(then try the shift-3 key for the £ sign again
I checked this out and it does work (is reversible)
I think looking at the 2 methods the 2nd is easier to do

Thanks, guys.
