I neet to ad an accent to the end of a name. The only thing I could think of was putting a apostrophe before the last letter but it dosn't look right. Can someone give me a way to do this so that it looks professional.
I guess you have a US keyboard, or at least a keyboard that doesn't have that key. Two options, either you use the Insert Symbol Character docker under the text menu, or you use the Windows shortcuts to create accented letters. For example, for é you would hit CTRL+' and then the e letter.

Thank You for your help. I used your suggestion and went to the character docker menu and found the letter with the accent I was looking for. I am so glad this site is here. thanks
If you're still in the ? loop --what are the other windows shortcuts? e.g. spanish and french,
wish I'd known about this years ago
thanks

Hi L Clare,
in addition to Silvio's great link, take a look at the Windows Character Map. If you are on Windows 7 simply press the Start button and then enter charmap in the search box and press enter; the character map will open up.
Best regards,Brian.
