á (ALT + 0225) é (ALT + 0233) í (ALT + 0237) ñ (ALT + 0241) ó (ALT + 0243) ú (ALT + 0250) ü (ALT + 0252)
Oh my gosh, how incredibly useful, thank you! (although that's a lot of digits to type while holding the alt key . . ) Do you know of similar shortcuts for the following? (copied and pasted from the "insert symbols" function in MS Word):

I don't but let me play around a bit, and I'll see if I can figure them out . . .
ã = ALT + 0227 ç = ALT + 0231
Keep in mind that a) This is for PCs. Macs do it with keycaps, using the function key, I believe, and 2) the numbers must be typed in on the keypad, not the row at the top of the keyboard*.
FYI: the letters are more or less in numerical order, so when you're trying to guess one you don't know, just keep going in order.
* Laptops have these too. You might need to press down function, and/or you might need to press num-lock before. My old laptop was great about it; I didn't have to hit num-lock. My new one is more annoying, and I have to lock the numbers, and then unlock them later. HOWEVER, I discovered that I don't have to do this in Notepad, so when I post on Spanish forums, or write letters in Spanish, I write my posts in Notepad and then transfer them over.
