How do you do I convert my keyboard to make accents with the alt buttons?
The following assumes your keyboard is set to some version of English and that you don't want to switch to a language that uses accented letters.
You need to use the numeric keypad in association with the Alt key if you want to type them directly from the keyboard, rather than copying and pasting them from the Character Map (Start... All Programs... Accessories... System Tools... Character Map). If you are using a laptop the numeric keypad may be a section of the alphabetic keys - if that is the case you normally switch it on with the Function or Fn key.
Hold down the Alt key as you type the numbers and the symbol will appear when you release Alt.
Á - Alt + 0193
á - Alt +0225
É - Alt +0201
é - Alt +0233
 - Alt + 0194
â - Alt +0226
Ü - Alt +0220
ü - Alt +0252
Ñ - Alt +0209
ñ - Alt +0241
To find the keyboard shortcuts for any other accented letters open Character Map, as mentioned earlier and select the letter you want to be shown the keyboard shortcut - or simply copy it in Character Map and paste it wherever you want.
