Start>programs>accesories>system tools>character map
all you have to do is click what you want, then click copy and use ctrl+v to paste. Easy if you can't remember the numbers.

Thats not even close to being correct though. Those Alt characters are Ascii. ANSI does not include character maps at all; its gears for working maily with output (Color, bold, italics) either on a screen or a printer.

Any other old timers remember setting up their own printer drivers using Ansi esc codes?
