Hello,

I am a translator and to make my work easier, I modified the French keyboard layout to add capital accented letters (É, È, Ç, À) and guillemets ('«' and '»') so as to access these characters without opening the Character Map tool.This modified keyboard of mine is actually the only keyboard that's activated (and available) on my system. I've changed the regional settings to make it so. The problem is that OpenOffice (version 3.3.0) simply ignores the modifications I made, in Writer as well as in Calc. It seems like the program embeds its own layout and ignores the system configuration, which is wrong in my book. So my questions are: has anyone ever succeeded in using a custom keyboard layout? is there a configuration option in OpenOffice that I overlooked?

Please help

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
