This program has great capabilities that may come in handy to me later,
But it does exactly what I need it too for my very simple task.

I want a Hotkey to insert common text entries - simple and this prog does it well.

I hit one roadblock though, and the tutorials and all are way too detailed on stuff I don't yet need, but I haven't found this easy answer and thought someone here might help.

How do I include a modifier (reserved character) in this case #
in a text string

^w::
send 1234 anystreet apt #12
Return

In this example the # symbol is necessary but it is not accepted.

I tried $ "" didn't work?

Your help please
