the number are working correct.

On a windows keyboard you will find the "@" symbel on key number "2" and you can selected by using Alt Gr + 2.

But on my macbook the @ symbel is located left ( next ) to number 1 on the keyboard.

This key has the icon @ and #.
But when i hit it, i get < and with shift i get >

thanks,

What country's keyboard layout does your Mac have? What keyboard is set in the Windows language control panel?

Dutch ( belgium )
is selected
when i select us english in the tasbar, then i got the @ sing when it hit shfit + 2
but then the keybord is qwerty, and here in belgium we use azerty :-s

I found out that when i use clr + alt + 2 i get the @ symbol.
So ctl + alt on mackeyboard running xp is the same as Alt gr on a windows keyboard.
Now i need to found a way to change the keyboard key zo when i press the key with the @ syumbol on my mackeyboard, i also get the @ symbol on my screen.

You could try using the French keyboard layout provided by Apple (with the Bootcamp drivers).
