Re: Accent marks

[Jean Weber <jean -at- wrevenge -dot- com -dot- au>]

In Word 97, look in the Help file under "International characters".  From 
the "Topics found" list, choose "Type international characters" for a list 
of the keyboard commands (shortcuts). For French, they are typically CTRL+ 
the accent required, then the character to be accented.

If the accented character you want isn't in the list, you can use Insert | 
Symbol from the menu bar (slow but it works) or assign your own keyboard 
shortcut to the character.
