AW: rawkeydown and numtochar don't work as expected

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hi Richmond,
thats exactly, what I've done (exept it were two fields), but testing your
approach gives me my same (wrong) result.
I am working with Rev 3.5 on Win XP, german keyboard
? returns: {
; returns: <
: returns: >
( returns: *
ß returns: [

any idea, what is going wrong here?
Thanks
Tiemo
