Answer 1

I presume you mean, á, é, í, ó, ú, etc. If you are using a PC, it's as easy as changing your keyboard to English International. That way you can enter any Spanish character.

The characters are entered by pressing the apostophe ( " ' ") and then the letter: '-a=á, '-e=é, '-e=é, etc. It seems cumbersome, but it is not. It is much better that using ALT key combinations.

does that also work if your on e-mail? - Rey_Mysterio, Mar 12, 2012

I use MS Word and Outlook. It works fine. I don't know about MAC users. - DonBigoteDeLaLancha, Mar 13, 2012
