    I teach Spanish, so I use letters with accents all the time:

    alt 0191 = ¿
    alt 0225 = á
    alt 0233 = é
    alt 0237 = í
    alt 0243 = ó
    alt 0250 = ú
    alt 0241 = ñ

    This one: alt 0233 = é might be good for people who do appliqué. Make sure if you're using a regular keyboard (not a laptop) that you have the number lock on for the numbers on the right hand side.

    I didn't either. Had two friends share the info on the º and ¢, and didn't know about this page. I never expected such a response in my life but sharing something that helps us all was my only intent. Have printed off the sheet and will be having fun. Thanks for the link.
