Johanna Timm, PhD Mar 21, 2007: I'm working on a NA keyboard as well - if you like I can send you my very own "how to make a Macro" instructions, which will allow you to type cute little ö's with a simple combination of keystrokes ;)
Saskia (asker) Mar 21, 2007: Thank you for your comments Johanna and writeaway. I will try writeaway's suggestion, although who has time when working frantically on a translation that was due "yesterday"!!! In deed, North-american key-boards don't allow for these accents, etc., when asking questions.
writeaway Mar 21, 2007: http://www.worldnames.net/unicode/alt-codes-for-symbols.htm Ascii Key so you can get all the accents and symbols you need even with a Dutch and/or Canadian keyboard
