This XASCII Help file shows you what each extended ASCII character number actually produces in a Help file and most other Windows files. If you have tried all these then that is it!

Character 160 produces a space which can act as a "hard space." later, Jon Melusky PS The above help file was written by the great James Bair, P.O. Box 203, Shelton CT 06484-0203, USA.
