Hi All,
To finish this thread from me on this, just tried ctrl alt/ctrl GR with the
five vowels in OE and it's working like a dream for us !
Thanks a mill

Ahoy Tony
I use both options in MS Word, MS Excel & MS Outlook!
Touch wood, they haven't let me down yet.

Ahoy Sean,
Surely someone is almost always going to!
Yes I started the thread and it works for me what Flor wrote for OE.
What exactly Sean do you use that in?
Say programme, version and the like?
Just a question!
Tony !

Well, seán:
It works with some letters for me, in Microsoft Word; but not all.
If I
use it when I type the Irish word tá, it works: but if I then use it
to
type sé or sí, I get se or si respectively. If I use it to type the
word í or é, it works. So while it may work werll for you, it won't
work for all. To be honest, it's also not the handiest key
combination.
Might as well use that alt-gr key (the name for the joint alt-ctrl
key
on european keyboard layouts) right next the spacebar.

That is the combination I use and no one has complained yet!

Not for me it doesn't work Sean, I have tried in Word. However if I
press
the right Alt followed by a vowel I get the French acute sign. Now
is
that
the same sign as the fodda? I have a niece whose name is órnagh
with
the
accent or fodda on the O. People can never work the name out and
find
it
simpler and most irritating for her they just call her Orla!
