This is a little off topic, but how did you get the two "dots" above the letter "a" in Fahrnirch? I assumed you used ALT + the number pad, would you tell me what the numbers were, please.

You can look up any of those combinations for accents and such if you go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Character Map. If it's not there, you can add the character map from your Windows installation disks.

But to answer your question, the umlaut over the a is from Ctrl+0228 using the keypad.

Thank you very much Sir!

Also, you can use the Windows character map (Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools)to either directly generate the proper characters, or when you select the appropriate one, the key combo will show in the bottom left corner.

LOL; that's a classic battletech thing. The Skye Republic is a part of House Steiner with strong separatist tendencies; I identify myself as being with that faction, when I have the choice of doing so. I really do live in Austin, Texas.
