I have Access 2002. We write a lot of letters in French and as I have a
QWERTY keyboard, we have shortcuts for the french letters which are missing
from the keyboard. For example Ctrl + e is e with an accute accent, Alt + e
is e with a grave accent, and so on. It all works just fine in WORD.

But in my forms in my ACCESS database, in my fill-in fields, the shortcuts
simply don't work. And there is no "symbol" option available in the tool bar
to insert a symbol or French character. Is there any way I can add this
function in to the database ?

thanks .. Roger

Look at the 'KeyboardLanguage' property. You will have to have the language
installed on each users PC.
