You can get information on the overstrike field in Word at
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Overbar.htm, but you don't need that to
print a vowel with a macron or breve. These characters can be found in the
0100-016D range (Latin Extended-A character subset) in the Insert | Symbol
dialog; see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/InsertSpecChars.htm
