On the european keyboard the ± sign is made by pressing shift and ±/§ key. This key is on the left of the #1 key, above the "tab" key. Also a very nice list for macwiki.nl, am i also allowed to copy this information with a reference to usingmac.com? Just like this one: http://macwiki.nl/index.php/Toetsencombinatie Thanks, Sypie
