Greek & Microsoft Word - Hello!

I'm new here- I can speak some basic greek, but I hope that being here will help me learn more, 'cause I really have great passion for this language and Greece.

My first question here is how to put accents (grave accents if that's the word)while typing in Microsoft Word? What's the key combination for that...?

Hope someone will help me with this :)

ευχαριστω πολυ!

Ευχαριστώ πολύ
