For the general discussion of how to insert special characters, see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/InsertSpecChars.htm.
Specifically for lines above characters, the lower case vowels with
lines above them are available in most fonts with the following
Unicode character codes:
a = 0101
e = 0113
i = 012B
o = 014D
u = 016B
In Word, you can type the number and press Alt+X to get the character.
If you use them frequently, either assign simipler shortcuts to them
or create AutoCorrect entries, as described in the article.
If you need lines over other letters that aren't already in the font,
see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Overbar.htm.
