    Cannot reach "@" on new keyboard

    General Keys is offering a Yellow keyboard with large black Alphabet and Signs. But i cannot open @ on position Q on a german qwertz-keyboard.

    On my actual also swiss/german qwertz-keyboard @ is on 2, can be reached with Alt Gr, so as € which is in the same second row like the mentioned @ which i dont know how i can reach.
    Working keyboard is on winxp, non-working on win7. did not yet test old keyboard on win7. all country/language-settings are ok. maybe not code-table which should be 850.
    This does not really help, maybe to understand why....
    Swiss-german not communicating with they keybord reg. @. would be strange. Thanks
    Strg + Alt could help but it seems deactivated.

    You have to press the "Alt Gr" key plus "Q" to make @ appear in your document or email address

    And hope this helps too.

    Tried the known combinations Alt Ctr, Alt Gr without success also beforehand.....
    Alt + Number should work.

    here is the keyboard i am referring to: T1

    strange that swiss shop is offering it. they have shops in all three german speaking countries. that explains it....

    Try [Alt][6][4].

    (While holding down the [Alt] key, type 64 on the number keypad and then release the [Alt] key. [The number keys at the top of the keyboard won't work]).
