How do I make a tilde with the letter n in the same keystroke when wanting to spell a Spanish word?

Update:

I have a PC I can make the tilde alone and obviously the letter n but Im stumped on how to do both at once Thanks!

    This should work in any Windows word processor, text editor, browser or email client.

    1. Make sure your keyboard is in NumLock mode.

    2. Hold down the ALT key and enter the number on the numeric keypad. (Note that many laptops have a blue FN key that changes a set of keys, also with blue numbers on them, into a numeric keypad.)

    for ñ 164

    for Ñ 165

    for á 160

    for í 161

    for ó 162

    for ú 163

    for ¿ 168

    for ¡ 173

    To be 100% correct, the Spanish letter "ll" should be a single character, but it's not. Have to type two l's for it

    Hope that helps.

    You need a Spanish language pack, they are available on the Windows site I think.
