I don't think it would work, but I don't know. I picked up the trick
somewhere else and don't know anything about the inner workings of
it. I would point out, though, that it does not change the keypad to
hex. It merely adds the capability. So all the old Left-Alt+xxx
ASCII? key combinations work, i.e. you don't type the plus sign and
there is a limit of three characters. So I don't think the 4-digit
code you listed would work.<br>

First, if you haven't already, you need to turn on the unicode
keypad. It's turned off in Windows by default. Use regedit to
find the key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Input Method".
Right-click on it, choose New and then String to create a new
string called "EnableHexNumpad" with a value of "1". (Don't type
the quotes.) REBOOT. Don't forget to reboot!<br>
<br>
Now, you will be able to type unicode characters by holding down
the left-alt key and simultaneously pressing the plus sign on
the keypad, and then (while still holding down the left-alt key)
enter the unicode character. Then release the left-alt key.
(Note that the right-alt key does not work for this.)<br>
<br>
So, for your example you would hold down your Left-Alt key, and
then (simultaneously) on the numeric pad:<br>
press + <br>
press 2<br>
press 0<br>
press 0<br>
press 8<br>
and then release the Alt key. Some Unicode characters have the
hex letters a to f in them. Simply enter them from the main
keyboard (while still holding down the Left-Alt key).<br>
<br>
PLEASE NOTE that the punctuation space that you want to enter
will ONLY appear if the font you are using contains it as a
defined character. (Most fonts do not.) <br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Now a new question: I thought there was
a way to insert a space that’s the width of punctuation,
such as a period or comma (similar to Esc spacebar m for
em space, Esc spacebar t for thin space, etc.). I found
the Unicode for it is x2008. I’ve tried (and had other
people) try this, holding down Alt and typing 2008 on the
numeric keypad. We get a character that looks like a long
equal sign with a vertical line through it.<o:p></o:p></p>
