I'm not 100 % sure, but I can type accents just by hitting "`" and "a" and get "=C3=A0". This might depend on the locale setting or the keyboard type. So, perhaps you can just try my method and see if it works for you.=20 If it doesn't, then you can define your own keyboard shortcuts in OOo. In this case you can select, if this shortcut is only available in Writer, Calc, Impress or if it is available in all programs. Check "Tools > Customise > Keyboard".=20 Hope, this helps.=20 Sigrid --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscribe(a)openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-help(a)openoffice.org

These languages are using accents much more often then in French or Spanish and I am fully satisfied with locale settings, no need extra keyboard sortcuts. regards Tomas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscribe(a)openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-help(a)openoffice.org
