What is the keyboard shortcut for adding accents to letters in Microsoft Publisher?

Question

Gaah, writing a spanish paper is KILLING ME! I can't seem to figure out how to accent a letter without clicking 'insert' and 'symbol'. Is there a keyboard shortcut?

Answer 1

Welll, the following works in Word, so I'm thinking it'll also work in Publisher. To make Spanish accented letters, just hit CTRL + ' (apostrophe), then the letter. This also works for capital letters. To make the Spanish question mark, hit CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + ? (press them all at the same time). To make the Spanish exclamation sign, hit CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + ! (press them all at the same time). To make the letters with tildes (ñ), hit CTRL + SHIFT + ~ (the tilde symbol), then the letter.

To make this letter ñ in other than Word, you can go to the Character Map in Windows XP, by going to All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Character Map.
