I need type "@" for email addresses after spending 30 minutes on Character Map (It wasn´t easy to find) it say U+0040 What?????? what means "U" on windows is by example Alt+0040 you just press Alt key and numbers.
In aMSN you can´t copy and paste the character and maybe I need to type "@" in the future so.....
Thanks for any help

I'll try. The "U+" is not a keystroke like "Alt+" or something, I think it just stands for Unicode.
You can search and find "@" in Character Map by clicking Search > Find, then enter the code 0040 in the box, then click on "Next."
That will find the "@." Then you double click on the the "@," and then click "Copy." That copies the "@" to the clipboard. Then you go to where you want to place the "@" and paste, using the keystroke Ctrl+v.
That is how I would use it, assuming that I am understanding your question correctly.

Thanks that do the job
but is a shame that I just can´t type @, instead I have to take the looooong way to do it (find+copy+paste )

Re: How to use Character Map ?
Why not? Does your keyboard not have that character?

In any email address, it is there..Terran wrote:Thanks that do the job but is a shame that I just can´t type @, instead I have to take the looooong way to do it (find+copy+paste )
It it's awkward on the keyboard or with a character map or via the SCIM input methods, then find that character in any email and copy/paste it into your document
--if you used a clipboard manager, it would always be there, as well as any other characters you might need
