For example; the upside down question mark, exclamation mark, accents, etc...\n\nAlso, are there any shortcuts to use them?

I don't think people understand that you meant a down arrow symbol, as opposed to a down arrow button for scrolling down. \n\nYou could always resort to using a lower-case v.\n\nLook : < > ^ v    <---- Isn't it cute? It's a wee little v!

Dude, let me know when you figure this out.  I'm also dying to know.  Is it really so hard to hit an extra two keys when typing words like "are" or "you?"

You could use Google´s... On the right hand side of where you type in your question or search keywords, there is a link titled Language tools... You can type everything into it both ways and in many other languages as well... I use it now in Brazil when I do not know how to say something in Portuguese. Happy translating!

I suppose it depends on WHERE you are taking the symbol placement action.  If it's in Microsoft Wrd, choose the "insert" file choice and then choose "symbol."  You can make keyboard shorcuts for the ones you want to employ.\n\nThere are a few downloadable foreign-language programs that give you an onscreen icon you can click to insert symbols from other languages into text in a web browser.  You have to search "translation" on google to find them and install these programs.  I can't FINd the !@#$#@! edition I used to have here because I had to reload everything on a new hard drive lately - but they are out there and very handy.\n\nAnd oh, by the way - the other answers are right - you want Greek characters. However, they are now adopted into our own tongue as scientific symbols.

Use :), :(, etc or use 'insert' then 'Symbols' on Microsoft Word

♥Go to>start>programs>accessories>system tools> then "Character Map"...scroll down to "symbols."\n\nHope that helps.\n\nMore info:\nHold down the ALT key and then press numbers on the num pad. When you let go, it will type a symbol such as this smiley face: ☺ (ALT + 1).\nA heart is ALT + 3: ♥. You can press more than one number, though, such as ALT + 1 + 3: ♪. Similar things are usually grouped together, so ♥ is ALT + 3, ♦ is ALT + 4, ♣ is ALT + 5, and ♠ is ALT + 6. Experiment and you will find many more.\n\nAnother way of doing it is to type special codes for certain entities such as &hearts ; (without the space inbetween the code and the semicolon) which is ♥. Here is a list of a bunch of them: http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40...\n\nIf you're using Windows then a third way is to go to start > all programs > accessories > system tools > and character map (or just go to run and enter charmap). Then search for what you want, select it, copy it, and paste it wherever you want. For example, I found this in character map: ♫. I found this under another answer. \nwww.asciitable.com\n\n♥♥

If you're using windows, Start, Programs, Accessories, System tools, Character map (or something like that). It will bring up a list of special characters that you can copy from.\n\nIf you're using Linux and running KDE, you'll find character map under office accessories called Kcharselect.   ¿

Two ways:\n\n1) Click the paragraph icon on the toolbar at the top of the Word window...it looks like a backwards "P".\n\n2) On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the View tab.  Under Formatting marks, select the check boxes next to the characters you want to display. \nTip   To display all formatting marks, select the All check box instead of selecting each individual check box.

Take a look at this Punctuation Art website and in particular, some of the ASCII artwork.  I was amazed at what people could create!\n\nhttp://www.laits.utexas.edu/hebrew/personal/toolbox/acm/punctuation/punctuation.html\n\nplrr

It's like vashfish said.  You use KeyPress or KeyDown and then you see in the sub you use this:\n\nif Not IsNumeric(<textboxname>.text) then\n<textboxname>.text = <textboxname>.text.substring(0, <textboxname>.length - 1)\nMessageBox.Show("Error message")\nend if\n\n(replace the 3 dots with a comma, Y! won't let you use a comma like that, for some reason...)
