They're different letters, so you wouldn't be able to achieve this
afaik unless you create a list of the possible options.

So for that kind of task, without telling the computer differently,
"Jose" is different from "José" in the same way "Cars" is different
from "Card".

The only two real options I can see is to create a many to one and one
to many listing relationship for some words (jose should select jose
and josé), which is a bad way to go, or to strip accents and use
regular letters, so  replace all "é" with "e" when doing the string
comparisons, which is a better way to go.
