How do I type in Greek on a Word document? I have XP and Word 2002. I have
also downloaded Microsoft Visual Keyboard. Even though I see references to
Greek in the help area, none of them seem to apply to my version of Word.
When I go to help > language, the only option that I see is set language, but
that doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for.

Thanks

Simply type it using ASCII characters.

You need to install the Greek keyboard alphabet. It's done through the
Control Panel / Regional and Language Settings / Languages tab / Details.
When it is installed then you can switch between English and Greek.

Thank you, Pegasus and Bruce. How do you switch between the languages? I go
to tools > language > set language > Greek, but it still types in English.
Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

You ask Windows! Click Start / Help, then type Language and pick the right
item.
