Alan,
Piece of cake. Hold down the "alt" key and then punch in on the numeric
keypad,164. This will put in the ñ that you need so much in the Spanish
language.
Remember it put in the whole thing the n and the ~ over the n, as
follows, ñ.
See you at the meeting on August 28, "Cuban Liguus" program??
Later,
Emilio
