It appears we've caught up with the our Rich Bother or Sister as you might call it the MAC. You can access a whole series buy holding down the option key and then typing a character. A set of acute, Grave, Circumflex, Umlaut and Tilde characters are available with option key prefixes below: ACCENT OPTION PREFIX VALID KEYS ------ -------------- ---------- Acute ' Option-e a e i o u E Grave ` Option-` a e i o u A Circumflex ^ Option-i a e i o u Umlaut/Dirisis Option-u a e i o u E Tilde ~ Option-n a A o O n N Cedilla available by single option "c C a A o O s" Hope this helps some of you. I'm still tring to find out if it works in other applications the same but I keep running into non system disk compatable software. Grant
