I'm having a hard time typing in speacial characters. For example: using the Aachen CP-Dak, it says to hold down the "Alt" key and enter the codes, then release the "Alt" key and I should see a 'vertical bar place marker' or the special character in the text window. But when I hold down the "Alt" key and start typing the code, I get the "doink" sound that's not allowing me to hold down the "Alt" key and type at the same time. This is all using Designs Shop Pro. What's the secret? What am I not doing?
