Within TMG, select Tools from the menu (when you're entering something
into a memo field, etc.), then the Character Map. When that window
opens, You can select Font and Subset -- they are both on a drop-down
list which scrolls. Select Times New Roman as the Font; you can then
select Latin-1 or Latin-2 besides the Windows Characters (which is the
default). I think you'll find the characters you want.
