Help would be more helpful for you if you spelled it correctly: unlaut (with
a t). You can use Insert Symbol; or use the short cut: Ctrl-: followed by the character over which the umlaut should appear, (which works only for vowels, I think). "amcguck" wrote in message news Does Word have the symbol for an umlauf? Where can I find it? How do I use it? |

You can insert a standalone umlaut using Alt+0168 (on the numeric keypad)
or, in recent versions, by typing 00A8 and pressing Alt+X. But if you want an umlauted vowel, most fonts contain special characters for these, and the built-in Word shortcut for these is Ctrl+:, followed by the letter. For more on inserting special characters, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/InsertSpecChars.htm -- Suzanne S.
