[oXygen-user] Eth when splitting elements

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello,

It seems Word implements a special input method for your Dutch keyboard 
layout which Textpad and the version of the Java virtual machine that 
runs Oxygen do not support. Is it a Java 1.5 virtual machine? You could 
try with a Java 1.6 one because it has better integration with the 
operating system. Other option is to implement such a Java input method 
yourself but this is an advanced Java topic.


Regards,
Sorin


PS: I hear that the betting houses think that the Romanian team has 
better odds in this match :-) We will wait and see ...
