How do you get the little dots over the e, like this Ã«? Or other things, like Ã¡ the little dash over that a. Or the ^ over the u and whatever. Can anybody help me?

use ur start bar

START > PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > SYSTEM TOOLS > Character map

u can copy and paste them from there, but i know u dont want that, however if u look on the program it tells u the short cut in the bottom right corner (so u type them)

Ã¡ = ctrl-alt-a

etc

I cut-and pasted those, yes. Thanx for the help!!!

I got them all on my keyboard (no you can't have it! It's mine do you hear?Mine!!)

But I believe there were some combinations of alt and a few numbers pressed together. Such as

alt 139 Ã¼
alt 130 Ã©
alt 131 Ã¢
alt 132 Ã¤
alt 133 Ã*
alt 136 Ãª
alt 137 Ã«
alt 138 Ã¨

and so on, but maybe your's is programmed differently.
