George, I have posted to the list a few times but have not received an
answer back to my first question. I am trying again. I am having problems
translating print Spanish accents to the correct format in braille. In my
document I have written the sentence "Es este el camino a Puebla? " and have
applied the style ''spanish' correctly to the sentence. In the sentence
however, the "e" in este has an e with the acute accent. When I translate
to braille, everything else is in uncontracted braille as it should be
except for the letter that is supposed to have the dot 4 in front of it. It
is translated "the'. What might I be doing wrong? I have tried cutting and
pasting the accent symbol from the characters list and have approached it by
entering the accent using F5 from the Layout menu. I'm as they say in Texas
"stumped"

There is just one slight problem with trying to automate any kind of spell
checking - human error.
Some of you may have seen the following I have in the 10.4 Help files under
the Topic Spelling Checkers.

Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word

Weather eye am wrong oar write

Its letter perfect in it's weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
