You can assign them by using a macro to insert the special character. There is a document explaining how to do that. It may be the "special characters" or another document listed on the page http://documentation.openoffice.org./HOW_TO/index.html If not, it is on one of the related pages in http://documentation.openoffice.org./ Regards, TerryJ -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/hot-keys-for-special-characters-tf2909666.html#a8135120 Sent from the openoffice - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
