Hi,

I'm currently having strange problems in Visual Studio .NET.
No matter what language I'm writing my programs in, I still
can't write the sign "\" - backslash. All I get is a "Y" with
two "-" over it.
If I cut and paste this character into Notepad I get the backslash!
This creates a lot of problems when I try to open files at c:\. etc.

Any idéas?

Regards,
Martin
 
Hi,

Thanks for your quick reply.
It's a good suggestion if I could write the "\" :)

If I try this it would end up with this (where the Y will have
two '-' over it):
string str = @"c:Yabc"
The editor don't let me write the "\"....

Do you have any IMEs or alternative keyboard layouts installed? They might
be causing this problem
 
What's your locale set to?
