Attached is my text file called $$ascii.txt, which can be used for cutting
and pasting accented letters, ligatures, ffractions, superscripts, et al.,
if all goes well. you can Save it as a text file and make use of it.
I'm sorry it's so messy. It includes things I took from the Character Map
system utility I found in Windows 98SE as well as odd things that have shown
up elsewhere. And I've tried to copy the most frequently used characters
onto the first line.

The information in this article applies to:<BR>
<UL>
<LI>Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
<LI>Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 7.0, 7.0a

<H2>SUMMARY</H2>
<P>Microsoft Word provides a way to type international characters
that contain a grave (`), acute ('), circumflex (^), umlaut (:), or
tilde (~) directly from your keyboard.<BR><BR>For example, the
following are some of the characters that can be typed with an
accent directly from your keyboard:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Courier New'">
</SPAN></P></BLOCKQUOTE><B>NOTE</B>: The names of the various
accents may be different, depending upon your language.
<P></P><BR>
<H2>MORE INFORMATION</H2>
<P>To type an accented international character, follow these steps:
<H3>Windows</H3>
<OL>
<LI>While holding the CTRL key, type the character that will
appear above the letter.<BR><BR><B>NOTE</B>: To add the tilde,
colon, or caret character, press CTRL+SHIFT and then type the
character that will appear above the letter.<BR><BR>The status bar
displays "CTRL+<I>key</I>" where <I>key</I> is the key that you
pressed, but nothing appears on the screen.<BR><BR>
<LI>Type the letter that you want. The accented character will
appear in the document.<BR><BR></LI></OL>If you type a legitimate
symbol and an ineligible letter, you hear a beep. If you press CTRL
plus a symbol that is invalid, you see just the character with no
symbol above it.
<H3>Macintosh</H3>
<OL>
<LI>While holding the OPTION key, type the character that will
appear above the letter.<BR><BR>
<LI>Type the letter that you want. The new combination appears in
the document.<BR><BR></LI></OL>If you type a legitimate symbol, but
type an ineligible letter, the symbol and letter will be placed in
the document as separate characters.
