there is a simpler way... if you use an english version of XP but another keyboard layout... use in .
Code: Select all
chcp (code)
Code: Select all
CMD
- 437 = UK/US
850 = Multilangual (Latin)

No, not entirely. Our friend uses a Croatian-keyboard layout and a English version of Windows XP. Therefore, for some odd reason, his DOS-environment uses the codepage 437 as a standard, which gives him a US keyboard layout. When changing this to 850, his problem is solved, because DOS (CMD if you prefere) then recognizes the keyboard layout.

He started to program with Basic again so he might, or he might not. Atleast his problem is solved and he was happy with it...

Just for the record:
Due to solving this problem, I got my UK-based laptop stuck to pagetable 850... that's nice when you get faces and stuff in your program...
lol
