Thank you to everyone who responded - and all so quickly that I had not expected.
I appreciate that for most of you in the European area the problem is "old hat" and also your patience in answering me. I have been trying for some time to totally migrate to Linux but the language keys have been an obstacle as my wife is German, a translator and communicates with Germany on a regular basis, hence the requirement. She has become accustomed (after some time) to Windows format and if I can't make it simple and easy enough to enter German or French characters then I stand no chance no matter how good Linux is over the alternative. I will also try Matthais's method utilising the Windows key. Anyway thanks again, I have got it started now and will progress from there Regards Peter Cave _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
