Normally, on my keyboard, pressing CTRL+ALT+[vowel]
produces the vowel with a grave accent (á for example).

Does anybody know how to change this so that the same
combination will produce vowels with umlauts instead?

Would it make sense that if you already have one combination
for á, then there would be another one making ä? In other
words, are you sure there isn't such a shortcut already
somewhere?

I have an umlaut on my keyboard and so I go shift - umlaut
then hit the vowel. Thïs döësn't hëlp yöu ät äll,
sörry.

Does this though?

it would make sense, but this is windows, so common sense
doesn't prevail.

what i'm doing at the moment is putting all the special
characters at the top of each document and copying and
pasting as i need them, but it's very cumbersome. any ideas?

Ctrl + Shift + ; + [vowel]

only seems to work in Word though.

Hmm.. That combo actually doesn't work for me, so I think it
must be something you've somehow set up yourself.

If you only need it in Word, I think you can go into the
"Insert > Symbol" menu thing and choose shortcuts for
special characters. Then you could make
ctrl+alt+shift+letter add the ¨ or something.

Fuck, I always wondered what that button was for. Now I know
at least one of its functions! This thread has been the most
useful thread of 2007.
