Pierre,

we all are lost in front of a new
OS - though windows and macs do work relatively the 
same (as compared to classic [l]un[at]ix based os's)

try to have the same settings on both PC/MAC systems
if they don’t work the same... *

start -> control panels -> regional settings and then keyboard

work with notepad to see what "windows" does "normally"...

rev may work differently? doubtfull...

cheers
X
