Keyboard @ and " characters reversed.....

[Dermot]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

During the installation of XP I think I selected the wrong country when
configuring the keyboard and now the @ and " characters reversed.

In control panel, keyboard option.....here is no facility to change this.

Can anyone suggest how I do this without reinstalling XP?

Thanks
Dermot

Hi Jeffrey,
Thanks for he help, I was sure there would be a simple way o rectify this,
and had looked in regional language options...and missed the details option.
So I am a happy chappy

Check your input method & language under the Control Panel's
Regional and Language Options. It sounds like you're using the wrong
version of English for your location.
