    Hello everyone. I will really appreciate some help with this. Please I would like to know how to type the letter "ñ" with the Vaio Z American keyboard. I type in spanish often and that letter is used commonly but I can't find how to accentuate the "n" with the keyboard.

    Anticipated thanks :)

    first turn on num lock and keys [890][uio][jkl] will be your number pad, and type in the following for the letter you want
    * á = Alt + 0225
    * é = Alt + 0233
    * í = Alt + 0237
    * ó = Alt + 0243
    * ú = Alt + 0250
    * ñ = Alt + 0241
    * ü = Alt + 0252
    *note i have a SR but i think the keyboard is the same, but i could be wrong try it out, also the number on top of keyboard wont work you need to use the number pad on your keyboard after you turn on num lock
