This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
Hi Michel,

>Can someone explain me why when I use the ALT sequence to get character 135, than I do get "ç". But, if I print ASC('ç'), it gives me 231?

"ç" is 231 in the Windows codepage (1252), and 135 in the DOS codepage (437). In Windows you can use ALT+ to enter both code pages. ALT+nnn enters a DOS code, ALT+0nnn enters a Windows code. Windows automatically translates those to the current code page. In other words, you can either use ALT+135 or ALT+0231 to get "ç".
