Tony Tebby's Language Dependent Modules article has notes on setting up new keyboard layouts and so on, you can get this article from: I know that many years ago I typed a long sbasic listing (from IQLR?) and I still have it. I could dig it up for you . http://www.dilwyn.uk6.net/docs/smsqegd2/index.html It might be possible to use Wolfgang Lenerz's Clavier program to create a new keyboard table for your keyboard: That is what I did years ago for Windows XP. I chose 33 (France) in QPC's configuration menu and used 'Clavier' to adapt the kbd-layout. The problems popped up when I installed QPC (v3.34) on my new laptop (Vista). http://www.dilwyn.uk6.net/misc/index.html I haven't been following this thread too closely, so I don't know if this email is truly appropriate for your programs, so I apologise if this email is irrelevant. It's was very helpful. Thank you, François Van Emelen ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

You need to upgrade I think to run QPC under Vista. See Marcel's web site for details. Cheers, Norman. Hi Norman, Upgrading to QPC vers.3.34 is the first thing I did and everything seemed to be ok except for the keyboard. One key keeps autorepeating, others return characters different from those on the keyboard and some don't return anything (eg. right shift key) and finally some characters are returned by 2 different keys. I am using a Belgian keyboard (slightly different from the French AZERTY keyboard) on my laptop and I have tried lots of keyboard layouts to no avail. The previous version of QPC (3.33) & Vista has the same keyboard problems here. It could be a hardware problem after all. Is there someone out there using a combination of Vista and QPC with an AZERTY keyboard ? Thanks for your help, Norman.
