I'm struggling to work out how to type Croatian accents on an English Keyboard, how is this done smoothly and quickly without copy & paste?

Thanks.

If you have Windows XP:

1) On the menu bar on the bottom of the screen, right-click.

2) You will get a menu and at the top of a menu you will see an option called "Toolbars". Move the mouse cursor onto "toolbars" and then you click on the option "Language Bar"

3) Now you will see at the bottom right a blue square with a two letter code. This represents the default language code for your keyboard. If it's English, you'll see "EN"

4) Right-click on this blue square and then you will a small pop-up menu.

5) Left-click on the option "Settings" in this small pop-up menu.

6) You will get a small pop-up window entitled "Text Services and Input Languages"

7) On the right of this pop-up window, you will see the button "Add". Click on this button.

8) As the input language in the pull-down menu select "Croatian". Click "OK"

9) Click on "Apply" on the bottom right of the menu.

10) You will now have the option to reconfigure your keyboard as a Croatian one, by left-clicking on that blue square that I was talking about in 3). The code for an English keyboard is EN, while that of Croatian is HR.

Reconfiguring your keyboard will of course work, but I have problems remembering the different layouts, so I use the keyboard system of Lexilogos.org instead.
