maddymcD -

After looking on lots and LOTS of websites, I have finally found a formula for accents that will work on my Mac.

How these work - Press the 'Option' key and the letter specific to each type of accent at the same time, and then let go and press the letter (L) that you would like the accent to be over.

These are how to do the different types of accents, and they will work on the letters

'n,N,o,O,a,A'.

Type of accent, Sample, Formula

Acute, Ó ó, Option+E, L(letter that the accent will be over)

Circumflex, Ô ô, Option+I, L(letter)

Grave, Ò ò, Option+`(symbol to the left of number 1), L (letter)

Tilde, Õ õ, Option+N, L (letter)

Umlaut, Ö ö, Option+U, L (letter)

Example: To input the letter Ó, hold down the Option key, then the E key. Release both keys and then type a capital O.

I don't know if these will work on windows or other computers, but for all those people out their that own macs, it is the formula for you!

If this helps you, please recommend me. Thanks :) -maddymcD
