Hi,

If you are using a Spanish keyboard with an UK operating system make sure you have the keyboard map set to Spanish Traditional.

Please tell me what operating system i.e (Windows XP, Vista, WIndows 7) you are using and I will provide you with the instructions of how to set this.

Regards

Hi m,

Try this ...

Instructions for Windows XP

1. Click Start and then Control Panel
2. In Control Panel, if you are in Category View, click on Switch to Classic View (top left corner)
3. Open Regional and Language Options.
4. Click on the Languages tab.
5. Under Text services and input languages, click on the Details button.
6. Under Installed services, click Add.
7. In the Add Input Language dialog box, choose the input language and keyboard layout or Input Method Editor (IME) you want to add.
8. Click OK twice. You should now see a language indicator in the System Tray (located at bottom right hand corner of the desktop by default). You can switch between different input languages (= keyboard languages) by pressing the Alt + Shift keys

Any problems post back
