    I have the following problem with the German keybord and an
    AT-Bridgebord:
    After typing keyb gr I am missing the backslash-key (left near
    the backspace-key).
    In the PC/SYSTEM directory there is an ascii file named SidecarKeys.
    Table with an comment saying what to do with the German Keyboard.
    But nothing happens after doing that. Its the same problem.
    Is there someone in the world who solved the problem??
    
    regards
    
    Manfred

|     I had the same problem if I was using the french-canadian
    keyboard on the Amiga.  Fortunately the hardware french canadian
    keyboard does not exist.  I am still using the american keyboard.
    
    I had a few programs that reprogram the keys on the IBM side and
    they all worked ok.  If I remember, there is a programme called
    sidekick that can handle key reprogramming.
    
    I also have a PD program that reprogram your keyboard
    for french canadian,  useless for you I know, but I
    am pretty sure the equivalent in germany must exist.
    
    Also in MS-dos, there is a command (in MSdos3.3) that set the
    country of your KB.  This is of course free and included in 
    your dos.  I forgot the command, but if you ask I can find
    it for Germany in my books.  You need a special number
    corresponding to your country code.
