Adding a special character

If you ever find the need to use a special character such as; ® or ©. Instead of opening up your character map each time you need to insert one of these symbols, there are shortcuts available that can be a great time saver. Here's how:

Go to Start>> All Programs>> Accessories>> System Tools>> Character Map. 

Click the © symbol

At the bottom right corner, you will notice the keyboard shortcut used to insert this character.

Be sure to write it down for future use.


To insert the character using the keyboard shortcut:

Position the cursor where you would like to insert the special character.

With NUM LOCK key on, hold down the ALT key and use the number pad keys to type the character value.
