If the inevitable occurs and you need to type up a paper in Spanish, French, or German, this page might come in handy. It contains many of the accented and other characters that you can include into your paper. The codes are the Windows-based codes, and should work within most Windows-compatible word processors (i.e. MS Word, MS Works, Wordpad). To get one of these special characters to appear within your essay, hold the ALT key. Then just type in the 4-digit code number on the right-side numeric keypad. Release the ALT key, and the special character should appear.
