SWMBO has a keyboard that has a $ sign but no £ sign.
In Office Word you can go to Insert then Symbol and then it's easy to insert a £ sign.
But what do you do if you don't have Office? Is there anywhere you can go to access a £ sign?
How do you insert a £ sign into a document if you don't have Office?

Normally I'm lazy enough to search for pound sign and then copy/paste from google. If it's something you might do semi regularly though you can find the decimal code for it, and use alt+code on the numeric keypad. - So it's alt+0163 = £Originally Posted by Roscoe

If you don't have a numeric keypad press Shift+3 together

You can use alt codes, add an alternative keyboard (its software to change your normal US keyboard to a Euro type one, you can set up multiple keyboards and toggle them when needed) , find it in character map and copy paste it or copy and paste it from text, etc.
And you maybe able to create your own dictionary word for it, e.g $$ could get replaced with £ if you set it up like that. Which would probably be a method I'd take if it works.

Character Map, it's on all the Windows operating systems as far as I know.
Look for it in MS search, not on Win 10 at the moment so I can't tell you exactly what to do.
Or Start/Accessories/System Tools/Character Map.

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

Yes that works really well but in Win 10 it is Start/Windows Accessories/Character map
