A while ago, I tried to solve this problem for my Chinese users. It was
Windows 2000 but I'm not sure in this case if there's any difference
between that and XP. The best I came up with was a Word document that I
gave each of them
(<http://trinity.aas.duke.edu/~laa2/chinese_tone_marks.pdf>) and had them
copy and paste from that for certain characters. Help yourself to the Word
version at (<http://trinity.aas.duke.edu/~laa2/chinese_tone_marks.doc>) if
it'll help. As the above pdf shows, half the characters can be done by Alt
+ a number combination, such as a (Alt + 0225). The other half I had to get
out of the character map, the built-in Windows tool.

There is probably a better way and I'd really appreciate hearing about it
as well.

Thanks,
