Alright then sorry I couldn't help... personally I use the (French) Canadian keyboard and there is no à on the keyboard, it requires back quote followed by 'a'. But I remember that on some other configuration, perhaps called 'Canadian International' (but I can't find it in XP), it's available on something like right-ALT and [ or ].
In Windows there is a setting to quickly switch between two keyboards with shift+Alt and many programmers switch between native and english when typing in code because of brackets, braces and backslashes.
I think this is enabled by default if you have two keyboard configured. It's on shift+left Alt.
The option is deeply buried in Windows, in Control Panel, Regionnal and Language Options, Languages, Detail, (here you should have English (United States) and a second keyboard - mine is French (Canada)), Key Settings.
