£ to rands
Hi
I am now working on a second hand Dell laptop which my son brought over to me from London. I am living in South Africa.I want to know how I can change from a £ sign to R for rands. I have tried to change it a number of times but it always reverts to the £ sign.
Help with this matter would be appreciated.
Sara

That sort of thing is generally done in the operating system, where you
can choose from a large selection of keyboard layouts. What operating
system are you running?

Go to *Tools --> Options --> Language Settings --> Languages* and change
your *locale settings* to English (South Africa).
This should set your *Default currency* to ZAR R English (South Africa)
