Visual C++ 2005 Express.

[antex]

I have encountered a stupid thing in my copy of VC++ 2k5 Express.

The } char does not work in the IDE and all other chars like @, { and ] works just fine.

Does anyone know what to do about this?
Sorry about the CODE tags, the forum didn't allow me to post those chars without it.

Any example?

hmmm never had that before. show the code.

[antex]

int main()
{
     return 0;
// can't put the "}" here in the IDE

This is the problem, the IDE refuese to accept that input. I can never end my code blocks because it does not accept that character.

EDIT: By the way, I use swedish keyboard layout and to get that char I press ctrl + alt + 0. I don't know if this matters but now you know.

Hmm....

You don't type the right curly brace with ctrl+alt+0. You use the "Alt Gr" key + whatever key the symbol is at. Usually the 0 key for non-english keyboards.

I've checked the swedish keyboard on the net. Try "Alt Gr" + 0. The "Alt Gr" key is found immediately to the right of the space bar
