have you tried windows charmap or alt codes? Win2000 Network Administrator

If you are talking about the place in Control Panel where you can change the mapping of what a character a particular key produces, the answer is no.

I just want to, on demand, be able to produce an 'n' with a tlde '~' for spanish names, accent marks for other words that need them such as epee, special characters used in some scientific circles such as a degree symbol, Omega, etc. Can I assign such characters to a key-combination (Not a single key) in Control Panel? If I can and you know how to do this, please let me know.

If you know the ascii value of the character you can hold the ALT key down and enter the value, e.g. ALT + 151 will produce the character ù
