Go Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Character Map. You`ll find all sorts of symbols there which you can copy and paste, or use the code number it gives you to type the symbol using keyboard shortcuts. ie: hold down the ALT key while you type 0189 to get the half symbol, like this ½ :)




Mark. :)

Does anyone have a list (or link to a list) which shows more of these codes?
