Typing Accents and Diacritical

Marks

You do not need to type accent and
diacritical marks when you are entering
words at the entry screen. They will be
added automatically. If you type a word
which has two forms (for example,
resume, résumé) that are accented
differently, you must highlight the form
that you want and press

ENTER

.

If you want to type accent and diacritical
marks, you must use the correct marks
or the word will be treated as a
misspelling. To type an accent or
diacritical mark, type the desired letter
(for example,

e) and press or until

the desired mark appears.
