Interesting. My backslash key doesn't require a shift-anything. It's just the key under the backspace. A shift with that gives me a vertical bar. Take care.

The backslash can be in different places on different keyboards. On mine it is shift along with the key just to the left of the backspace. On others it is shift with the key directly below the backspace. Kellie
