Stressed Russian vowels in Word 2007?

[Tom Dolack]

Hi Tom:

Hope this does the trick:

Go to the Insert Menu > Symbol > More Symbols > Choose "Combining 
Diacritical Marks" from the subset menu > Pick the acute accent (or 
whichever you so desire) and you're done! I also suggest setting up a 
shortcut key, I use ctrl-` .
