I came across an interesting problem tonight when using QPC2 to type a
German text on a UK keyboard. Chr$(128) on the QL character set (�) is
entered by CTRL + ESC. In Windows this is the keyboard shortcut for
displaying the start menu.

On my Windows98 machine Chr$(128) was entered in the QL document followed by
the display of the Windows start menu.

On my WindowsXP machine the character was not typed into the QL document and
just the Windows start menu was displayed.

No doubt German users do not have this problem as they have a dedicated
keyboard, but does anyone a solution  for we poor UK keyboard users?
