á é í ó ú <-- Like so? I put it on the US International Keyboard and press
the ' before the letter to make á for instance. You can also use the
character map by pressing start > run > type "charmap" without the quotes.
Which doesn't count because you asked how you would type it. That would be
cutting and pasting it. Or you can press and hold the alt key then type a
number and release the alt key and it will show up just like magic.

That has the most common ones listed. I think this is a list of all of them:

One thing to note is that with the International Keyboard loaded you have to
type the letter you want and then hit the space bar for it to appear in
Word. I'm not sure why, but that's how it works. Of course you can always
click on Insert and then Symbol but that's not nearly as much fun and, just
like using the charmap isn't really typing it.
