Hi Amro, I can see you do your research <Smile>. The script has already been written. It is called Word Accent, and it is on Version 1.5. Get it from http://www.gwmicro.com/sc All the best Steve From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Amro Bilal Sent: Monday 26 July 2010 20:11 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Window Eyes Special Character Selection If that is the only way to do it in WE then you guys should think about getting one of the gurus to start scripting! In Jaws it's Insert 4 and you have all the special characters there in a dialog to choose from in any application.

Word and Outlook have the facility to create certain accented characters within them using two keystrokes, one to define the accent and the second to choose the letter to take the accent. For example, to create é, press Ctrl + apostrophe and then the letter e. Nothing happens after the first keystroke, which determines the accent, and then the second keystroke, which must follow the first immediately, i.e. without any other key being pressed first, gets the accent. Not many applications seem to have this facility, and as I don't use accented characters very often, I use Word or Outlook to create them and then cut and paste them into other applications. I've got a list of the characters you can create this way; I'll hunt it down if you want.

With JFW I used to hit Ins 4 and select them from an extensive list. I've tried using the Windows Character Map but whilst it would read the Chars to me I couldn't insert them into any edit fields. Thanks, Barry.
