The only othe rkey is the [4] key which gives the [?] sybol wih Alt-Gr.
Just curious! Not having a British keyboard in front of me. Where is the British Pound key usually located?
If I were somebody else, I might say: Google it. :=)

Geez! All you had to say was above the 3 key. Anyway I also learned about the US International Keyboard while I was there and I installed it. Now I don't have to use ALT-FN and all of those number pad keys to type special characters anymore. Although I never did learn the ALT code to create the degree symbol (°). I have tried and that one never seems to work. And it isn't in the US International Layout either. :(
