I remember from school there's a way to type those funky
letters with accent marks, lines through the middle,
etc. by pressing Ctrl and something else. Can anybody
give me a link to a site that lists the keystrokes?
 
You may try the Character Map. It is very useful for me when I need a special
character in the middle of a doc writing.
 
Type
International Keyboard
in Help while online.

In Word there is a similar facility regardless on the keyboard type. Alt Gr is the right hand side Alt key.
 
Lets see if I can post this without spurious returns gettig added

I need to force a fixed pitch font for this.

Hold down the ALT key while typing the 3 character character code.
