where can i find a reference table so i can know where character i have to type in order to get a localized character in my language?

example: if i need to type in a cmd file the character ´ (accent) i use £ but i cant find a table to see other characters like "ñ" or others.

alosi, if possible i want to know what is this called? Character Coding? Unicode? ANSI? i really dont know.

thanks for any help.

%SystemRoot%\system32\charmap.exe
?
To get this, Startmenu>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Character Map
This what you meant? At least the right key will come up on the screen ;)
Btw, if you set the right keyboard language in windows, it will automatically set the right layout, e.g. £ will be £ again and not '

this isnt what i meant. i asked for a character code reference (or something called like that) because i dont know that type of character code is used in cmd files. as i said, for example:

in my runonceex file i have to use the character £ in %userprofile%Men£ Inicio\Programas (userprofile\Start Menu\Programas). i came to this thanks to someone that pointed it to me.

im looking for a character reference table or something that helps me find what character i need to write in order to get, for example the letter ñ in my runonceex.

im mexican so i use spanish windows cd. i have googled for it but i cant find what im looking for. thanks for any help.

Ahora mismo no tengo el CD del XP conmigo y no te puedo decir en que archivo en concreto se encuentra, pero para saber lo que necesitas tienes que mirar en un archivo que hay en el cd del XP dentro del directorio i386, en el que te viene el código para cada idioma, por ejemplo.

0c0a Español

En ese archivo te viene la ñ con el signo que debes de utilizar en un archivo bat o cmd ya que al ejecutarlo ese signo extraño se cambiará por la ñ

en este caso te viene 0c0a Espa¤ol

También encontrarás las diferentes letras acentuadas con un signo extraño, como ya sabes en la ú de Menú Inicio donde es Men£ Inicio.

De todas formas recuerdo el signo que necesitas y algunos otros.

ñ = ¤ --> Espa¤ol

Ñ = ¥ --> ESPA¥OL

ó = ¢ --> mel¢n

ú = £ --> Men£ Inicio

Si necesitas alguna otra letra acentuada entonces es posible que la encuentres en el archivo donde te viene el código de idiomas y al idioma al que pertenece dicho código, como por ejemplo el código del idioma francés que hará referencia a francés donde la é la encontrarás con el signo equivalente.

Mañana te podré decir el archivo exácto donde se encuentra la información que necesitas.
