Polish letters Alt-codes... Anyone?

There's some way to change that. Besides Poles can understand what that means even without Polish letters.

its for wen i go on to ivo software. im sure it doesnt say things right.

Go to> Tools> Internet Options> >Languages > Add > Select Polish [pl] >OK.

It will appear next to your icon tray..lower right..your right. You can select PL but the characters are made by pressing Ctrl + Alt + desired character.

done it just need to learn were the keys are now lol

cześć

cheers admin X

i dont have any problems lisa hun as i added the polish keyboard language bit

so i now get ż (normak z) ź( is the x key) rest are the same letters ą ś ć ę ł ó ń letters at any rate :)

mine are all on different keys. im hopeless with comps at the best of times.

What do you mean different keys...should be these:

ctrl+alt+ a= ą
ctrl+alt+ z= ż
n=ń
x=ź
o=ó
s=ś
e=ę
c=ć

nope mine doesn't do that. Think i'll wipe it all and start again cos i can't get it to work now.i'm gettin cross with it grrrrrrrrrr.

sorry Fisz that dont work. I'm doooooooomed

well think iąv sorted it. some of mz kezs are different but will work round that as zou can see. lol
Just will have to learn their new places.
y is now z and z is now y mz oops my ' is now ą.
I think thats the onlz only major changes.

I have set my keyboard this way (like FISZ's instuctions) and I keep the language tool bar in the system tray at the bottom of the screen so I can switch back and forth easily. I find that if I don't type words with the correct Polish letters, Poltran can't translate them for me. I have considered putting little pieces of tape over my keys to help me learn where things are. You have to hit SHIFT and press the punctuation keys to get additional letters. :)

Just some links to microsoft pages how to change the layout.

Does not work in Windows XP Pro SP3 (English version). Only United Kingdom/United States Keyboards.

Hello. You can configure your computer keyboard to type in Polish by going to the Regional and Language settings on your computer in the Control Panel. After you have configured your keyboard to type in Polish, you can press the Ctrl and Alt keys and then a letter and you'll get a Polish letter. :) I hope this helps.

I'm having problems with the ś key. I do alt-s, but nothing happens. All the comes up is a hp screen with bunch of numbers on it.

If you don't like fumbling with the ALT key simply use the Polish 214 keyboard where Polish diacritics are in the right place. Also, the Z is where it belongs on a Polish keyboard -- in the top letter row betweeen T and U, not in the lower-right corner.

Y?

How does that help me? I still can't make the ś key

hold alt and press 0156 on your numeric keyboard

Also, pressing ctrl is only needed when you hold left alt. If you press right alt, you don't have to use ctrl.

So, right alt + s should give you nice ś if you have polish keyboard layout installed. Make sure you use Polish (programmers) layout and not Polish 214.

I understand there is a Polish keyboard No. 214 which solves the problem. Anyone familiar with it?

Regular keyboard has Polish letters placed as they are placed on a regular Polish typing machine where ;'][/., are.

That's why one should use programmer's Polish keyboard, where all Polish letters are accessed by using right ALT and a letter (alt+s for ś)

Did even make sense here?

I tried doing that, but I have the same problem. I have the right polish (programmers) thing, and i pressed alt 0156, but for some reason it won't work
