Using tild-n in e-mail

Using Win XP/OLK 2003, and NOT using Word as the editor, does anyone know
how to insert the 'enya' (n with the tilde ~ over it) into an email? My
users typically have default email set to HTML although some prefer plain
text. Would that make a difference?

Thank you,
-Monica

Character Map can do that, but I find it easier to use this tool:
http://allchars.zwolnet.com/
 
Start menu, Run - type
charmap

find the character and copy. you can also look at the code in the status bar
and use it to enter the character. The right side has the alt+code and the
left has the Unicode code - type the Unicode codes (not the U+ part) in then
press alt+x.

you can also use the character map in word or create autocorrect entries for
frequently used symbols.

There are several ways to produce foreign-language characters like ñ. I use
a little freeware background program called AllChars. This lets me (in all
applications, not just OE) type many common special characters (many of
these are used in other languages) by pressing the ctrl key followed by a
two character mnemonic combination.

For example, for ñ the two characters are ~ and n. For ç it's c and , For ü
it's u and "
