For Microsoft products:

It's not possible to add a symbol to a letter as far as I know. It is, however, possible to insert a symbol that contains both the letter and the accent mark.

If you see a button on your toolbar that looks like a horseshoe, that's the button you use for inserting symbols. Press that button and it will give you a screen of special characters and symbols that you can select from. Select one, click on "insert" and then exit out of the screen.

If a horseshoe is nowhere in your toolbar, you most likely will be able to use the insert function. Select insert, then select symbol. The same screen as you would see above comes up and you can select a symbol (or scroll down until you see what you're looking for) and then select it, "insert", and exit out.

If you're working in newer versions of Word, use the following keyboard commands:

Alt + n. Let up and then press "u". A small window will show up with commonly used symbols. If you don't see what you want there, click on More Symbols and you'll get a vast amount of symbols and special characters to choose from. You can insert whatever you need, one at a time.

What you have to do is go to any Microsoft Office program and click on insert. On the far right, there is a tab that says symbol. There you can find an accented e. If worst comes to worst, just do it by hand.

For a grave accent hold down alt and type 0232 on the number pad. For an acute accent type 0233 instead.
