Typing Portuguese characters

I'm running OE 6.0 on a W98 platform. In all other programs, I can hit
a string of keys to get Portuguese characters (eg, "alt" + "," + "c"
give me a "c" with a cedille under it). However, in Outlook, this
doesn't work.

When I used Outlook 5.5 on W95, the key stroke sequence for W95 for
these characters did work.

Can someone tell me how to type these characters without a Portuguese
keyboard?

Thanks
