Spanish Characters
 

How can I access Spanish font characters in Excel? I want to use Spanish in
some Excel spreadsheet tables.

From Microsoft Help:


Obtain the Microsoft Office 2000 MultiLanguage Pack and install it.


On the Windows Start menu, point to Programs, point to Office Tools, and
then click Microsoft Office Language Settings.


On the User Interface tab, click the language you want in the Display menus
and dialog boxes in list.

There are not many special characters, are there? You could pick them up
from charmap.exe (Start Run and type charmap) or use Alt+0241 for ñ, 0209
for Ñ, 0161 for ¡ and 0191 for ¿ (using the numeric keypad).

with the accent grave by clicking CTRL + letter o. But this does not work in
MS Excel. Is there a way to do this in Excel?

Try ALT + 0192 through 0255(on the numpad) to get accented letters.

Open the Charmap to see which ones you want.

ALT + 0242 or 0243 will get you an accented o.

I can never remember which is grave and acute<g
