How to type accent marks

[mikemacabre]

I did most of what Timisimo did in his 3rd Option... except I left Input Language as English (United States) and for Keyboard layout/IME I selected United States-International.

Which seems to work the same way.
á = ' + a
é = ' + e
í = ' + i
ó = ' + o
ú = ' + u
ñ = ~ + n
ü = " + u
¡ = Alt (hold down) + !
¿ = Alt (hold down) + ?

On the last 2 I had to hold down the right alt key. But I found this thread to be the most useful cause of the neat little program that was attach to it. Generate accent Spanish letters That little program is neat and a real time saver.

Give it a try, it works with any language. I was just told about it and it seems it is going to be the one that I will use from now on.

Hello guys!
I just preinstal my windows (7) and somehow my AltGr button stop to make accent marks over the letters. I put the same drivers and the same keyboards, even i tryed with spanish one - it doesn't work any more. The laptop acts like the AltGr button is just regular Alt button in every program. Can you help me with this pls.
