<div class="WordSection1">Everything goes well, all letters,
symbols and accents work as they should, except for the command
\”{o}. What results is un upper index dot-comma followed by an

here? How can I get an umlaut?</div>

Generally, I personally prefer to just type (or copy-paste) the
umlaut (ö) if possible; and use an encoding like utf-8 (the default)
that supports it, of course.<br>
Regarding your problem: did you make sure that Format > Smart
Quotes is set to None. Otherwise the program will convert \"
(backslash-double quote) into \'' (backslash-single quote-single
quote) as it replaces " by the "correct" TeX commands for closing
quotation marks, ' '.<br>
