Somehow, the accents don't work properly! Out of a tabbing environment, I'm using: \'{letter} for letter = a,e,o,u \'{\i} and everything works fine! My LaTeX reference manual says that, to get the accents, you have to rewrite \'{letter} to \letter'. I did this but I'm not getting the same results! Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!! -Arturo. P.S. Please, e-mail I'm not a usual reader of this newsgroup. Thanks!!
