If you have a US keyboard, you don't need to remember all those codes. The accents for all the Western European languages have keyboard shortcuts built into Word. For an acute accent, type Ctrl-' (apostrophe) followed by the letter (l.c. or capital); for a grave, Ctrl-` (next to the 1 key); for a tilde, Ctrl-~ (shift-`); for the circumflex, Ctrl-^ (shift-6); for the dieresis/umlaut, Ctrl-: (colon); for the cedilla, Ctrl-, (comma)....

If the paragraphs can be identified, then it is certainly possible to apply
the correct styles e.g. the following macro checks each paragraph and if a
bullet or a number format is added to the underlying style, then those
paragraphs are formatted with the List Number style. However I am unable to
create the problem so I cannot check whether the solution posted here will
work for you.....

You can place the cursor at the end of the file for the first page and
go to Insert tab Object (almost at the right end) Text from file,
and browse for the next page. Your cursor will be at the end of the
two-page file, so do it again, etc.

Yes and no. The spacing will always be displayed in points but may be
entered in inches or centimeters, which Word will convert to points. Select
the default "0 pt" in the Spacing Before/After box and type in "3 cm" (Word
will convert to 85.05 pt.)

cross-references to come up in the font into which they're being inserted.

USay,
AFAIK there isn't a complete solution. You can certainly find and highlight
all instances ALL CAP words. With a macro, you can even exclude the
specific acronyms FBI and CIA, however excluding "like" acronyms is a
different matter:

Can I make a cross reference only with the number? I mean, all the options
given in word 2007 include thinks like: "Figure 1", or "Figure 1: The
name...", and I wanna to have only the number!
I can erase the words in the cross reference, but then, when I wanna print
it, word updates these spaces and the words show up again!

I would like to change bullet indentation but can't find where I can do it.
Currently I am changing every bullet manually with the ruler, but I want to
define a new bullet with the indentation I want. I tried the define new
bullet dialogue box but it doesn't have indentation control. It only has
controls for picture, font, symbol, etc., which I don't care about.
Thanks.

Did you find the Format Page Number tool? Among the choices it
provides is a dropdown with options like numbers, letters, roman
numbers, etc. (Be sure Same As Previous is unchecked, or you'll be
changing all your page numbers.)
