Default auto correct using an accent

I have Office 2003 (student/teacher) and I am trying to set my auto correct
so that when I type my name it will auto correct with the accent over the `e.

I can't seem to get it to work properly. I can get it to work in Word if I
press ALT+`+e, but when I try to set it in auto correct the accent just won't
go over the letter (see above....couldn't get it to work in this e-mail
either).

Does anyone know how I can't get the accent when I am setting the auto
correct?

Thanks

Copy it from your word doc into AutoCorrect rather than typing it directly
in AutoCorrect. That should work, I've got a lot of those.

Thanks Daiya but when I tried to copy and paste it wouldn't let me paste....?
I just want it to auto correct when I type my name so it would change it by
adding the accent to the e......rather than pressing three keys at the same
time. Any other suggestions?

Thanks, Gisele
