   My stationary machines are towers and even though the height of towers   
   has shrunk through the years, I raise them with something so the top   
   comes up to seat height.   
      
   My laptops have a joystick in the middle of the keyboard, even the Dell,   
   so I don't a mouse with them. I became used to the joystick on my Lenovo   
   (IBM ThinkPads) laptops so I became very glad when the Dell I received   
   as a XMAS present in 2015, also had the joystick.   
      
    HG> I don't know what a BandAid graphic is supposed to look like.   
      
    EV> Were You able to see the Bandaid image in that message I wrote to   
    EV> Daryl?   
      
    HG> If the character (sign) # is called BandAid I see them.   
      
   That character is on the keyboards Shift-3. No need for codes.
