Hi everybody,

	I have a very stupid question to ask... A friend of mine is taking
French in Grad school, therefore using Ms Word she wants to access all those
lovely accents and extra characters that the US keyboard doesn't show !

	Being French myself I never thought I could be faced with such a
questio

	Therefore the question is how do you get those extra ASCII characters
through the US keyboard, is there a way like on other computers to configure
the keyboard in French ? should she buy a French Keyboard ?

	This is a really basic question from a begginner so please don't blame
me, I have a good knowledge of computers but it is neither Apple neither IBM
because they are too expensive in France. (in fact I'm an Atari 1040stf
user... which is also a MC68000 machine)

	Thanks for you reply at the following adress,

			Friendly,   Jean-Philippe   DIEL
