El Nino

"El Nino" is spelled with a wave looking thingy on top of the small "n" in "Nino". How can I make that kind of n in microsoft word? How can I make that n in a blog or post?

Press Alt Gr and press the button with ^ at the same time (hold down Alt Gr and then press the button). Release both and then press n. Now you will get the ñ.

In Word, go to Insert --> Symbols. The n is located in Latin-1. Or, hold down Crtl and Shift and hit ~, then type n.

I know where "Alt" is but how can I find "Gr"?

Alt Gr is not the same as Alt and another key called Gr, Alt Gr is on the right side of Space on my keyboard atleast.

American keyboards don't have Alt Gr, I don't think. Or, it is not assigned as such when you select English-American as your default windows language.

Thank you, Senor.

It works very well on Word.

Now if I can just learn to do it while making some sort of post on the internet.

This should work on american systems too: Hold down Alt and then write 164 on your numeric keyboard, the letter will come when you release Alt. You will then get ñ, if you want Ñ try Alt and 165.
