I have a need to enter a range of non-English names into a combo box on a form in an Access 2003 application. Sometimes this requires the use of accented characters that do not appear on a UK keyboard. If I refer to the Windows XP Character Map facility (charmap.exe) then I can see that many foreign characters have been allocated an Alt-nnnn code that is displayed at the bottom right of the Character Map acreen. This makes it easy to enter such characters.
However, many other characters have not been given an Alt-nnnn keyboard shortcut. They only have a U-FFFF code, displayed at the bottom left of the Character Map screen. I've no idea what you are supposed to do with this U-FFFF code (where FFFF is a hexadecimal number), and the Help doesn't help. Any suggestions?
