Numbers: How do i replace accents with only the char?

I want to replace the accent chars with the same char, but without accents.

Ex:

á -> a

ã -> a

é -> e

etc...

Use Find-Replace as you would for any other characters.

Copy one of the accented characters, press command-F to open Find.

Paste the accented character into the Find box.

Type the unaccented character into the Replace with box.

Click Find next to check that the search is finding the correct character.

If so, and there are no instances of the accented character that you want to keep, click Replace All.


Repeat with each of the other accented characters.

Barry
