HI
All advice I can give you: go into word, go into the insert menu and choose
symbol. Then in this multi page dialogue select the special characters tab.
select the characters you want. Now copy the character you want to be inserted
into an internet form field or e-mail message. Copy it from word and go to the
form field or message you want to insert it and paste it there.

Subject: foreign characters in forms
Dear list,
I have Jaws 7 and windows 2000 and XP home edition. I have recently upgraded to
Jaws 7 from 5 and I am encountering a problem when typing foreign characters in
MS word documents.
To get the é ó, ú and á, one is to press altgram plus the voyel. With í, one is
to press a different set of keys since if not, we will enter insert mode or
overtype mode. However, I have pressed altgram I since it works in forms mode
in the Internet.
What happens is that Jaws does not allow me to do anything if I do this.
Everything I press will have ctrl added to the convination of keys I am
actually pressing and windows key will not work. I am forced to do a hard
shut-down to get it to work again.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem. If there are any Spanish users
with an English keyboard setting who have solved this, please let me know.
Also, if you have to write foreign characters in outlook express to send
E-mails, how do you type them since it does not work like Word...?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards and thank you once again,
Andrew.
