21589	2001-10-16 06:40:00	Is anyone able to tell me how to insert the symbol, u with a bar above it,as in the Maori word Purehuroa (this is on Massey University stationery? I am able to do this in Office 2000, but wish to print my document somewhere that uses Office 97, and the symbol doesn't appear to be available under 'Symbol' in Word.	Guest (0)

21593	2001-10-17 04:32:00	Yes, I tried that today, but the letter isn't there. Every other format seems to be, but not the U with a bar above it.Perhaps it isn't possible in Office 97.	Guest (0)
21594	2001-10-17 07:52:00	Try 'insert' symbol, latin extended-b, font= arial	Guest (0)
21595	2001-10-18 05:42:00	There is a specific set of Maori fonts available. The fonts give you also the a with the bar above. By the way, the bar is called a 'macron'. It signifies a long pronunication and is often spelled as a double 'a' where the macron is not available. I suggest you try university Maori departments, or government departments with a focus no Maori affairs. Aroha	Guest (0)
