Hello list, I've seen multiple requests for the HOWTO of Umlaut usage. I just found a great little freeware <FREE> program call "Umlaut Assistant" by Visual Fantasy. It loads in the tray, small little bar on top, you select which character you'd like and it's on the clipboard ready to paste in your mail or text. Visit the link below and look for Ümlaut Ässistant. Makes Ümlauting easy as clicking (-: http://www.kagi.com/vfstudio/fantasy.htm Marty Graybill
