I would suggest that you add the US International keyboard rather than a Spanish keyboard. A Spanish keyboard moves some of the punctuation symbols to other keys and you will have to memorize a new layout. The US international keyboard only effects your apostrophe key. All of the other characters will stay on the keyboard as you see them now. Adding the accents to vowels is accomplished by first hitting the apostrophe key then the appropriate vowel.
If you simply remove the US keyboard and only use the US international keyboard, then you do not have to bother with the switching between keyboards.
If you have problems installing the keyboard, PM me. I have a video screen capture showing you how to do it (Windows 7). The video is in .avi format so you can watch it with Windows Media Player. The problem is that it's a 30 MB file so it takes a few minutes to download. One of these days when I'm not so lazy I'll upload it to YouTube if they already don't have one. I also have an old Powerpoint slide show showing how to do it on Vista or XP if you would prefer that.
Do you mean the accent marks? You will have to enable them on your keyboard, if you have a PC you can go to Control Panel --> Date, Time and Languages --> Add a Language. Once you enable the Spanish on your keyboard, you will be able to switch back and forth as you wish (you may have to restart your computer first). A little bar will appear on the bottom of your screen, when you click it it will show EN for English, ES for Spanish. Choose ES, and to make an accented vowel, hit the ' (apostrophe key) and then the vowel you want to accent. Hope that helps. ![]()
