A US keyboard has the " and the @ transposed when compared to a UK one, so the @ is on the '2' key. If you use shift and the 2 key, you should get "@".

If using Windows, you should be able to reallocate the keys so they work as labelled. This may help http://windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/windows-vista/Change-your-keyboard-layout

Andy,

Thanks,  I'll change the keyboard to UK  and let you know what happens.

Dave.

DavidA:
changed everything to English (UK). It's fine now.

I didn't notice that it defaulted to English (US) on installation.

Thanks.

Dave.

David, you'll have fixed a few other differences at the same time. See second paragraph here:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_and_American_keyboards

I've learned something from that article; it led me to discover the delights of the Alt Gr key for €, é and things like that. Its a shame that, in UK English at least, it doesn't seem to do a degree symbol °. I'll have to carry on using Alt and 0176 on the RH numeric keypad to get that.

Andy

DavidA:
Andy,

I need to study that link.

Thanks.

Dave.
