PROBLEM wat a charracter

if i have a unknow character like that | (sort of that)
of can i know what knid it is

Do you mean you want to find out it's key code number? Use the Asc function.

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    MsgBox Asc("|") 'returns 124
    MsgBox Chr$(124) 'returns |
End Sub
