For future reference, the Jisho - Kanji by Radicals page is great for looking up unfamiliar kanji (which will probably happen a lot). Just click on the components of the kanji, and the kanji that have those parts will appear; for example, clicking on the fourth radical of the 2-stroke section will make 何 appear about halfway through the 7-stroke section at the bottom of the screen.

Thanks for the link Captain, I am sure it will help me in the future!
Cheers.
