What you will need to do is position your cursor immediately after the letter you want to accent and then insert it the long way - pull up the Symbols box, find the character you need, and insert it. You won't be able to use a shortcut key, but you can access the same group of symbols, including the aforementioned #0301 character. You'll have to do this a bit differently in PowerPoint (at least the MS Office 2007 version). You can continue typing without making any additional keyboard strokes. Īnd an accent should appear over the last letter you typed. Once you've typed the letter that you'd like to put an accent on, press your shortcut key combination. If you feel certain you're about to use the correct keyboard, you can begin typing.

This will open up a window for you that looks like this: Key sections have been highlighted in green.įirst, you'll want to go to your Insert tab and click on the dropdown box for "Symbols":įrom there, you'll want to click on "More Symbols." I'll add some screenshots so you can know what I mean.
If you are using Windows 7, you should be able to access "Symbols" from your Insert tab. I'd add at least one of the links here, but since it isn't directly related to Russian or the Cyrillic alphabet, I'll just provide an explanation here. Though I never found the page that had made everything so simple, I found a couple of pages that gave me enough hints to cobble together what I had in mind.
