The combining tilde is U+303 (decimal 771) so if you type X followed by
holding down Alt while typing 0771 on the numeric keypad you should get
what you want - there may be an easier way, of course.

I'd like to type a X with a tilde over it and have had no success. I've
tried CTRL SHIFT ~ and n and don't have a problem, but when I enter X
instead, nothing. I've also tried using the field codes listed here
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Overbar.htm
But the tilde is not above the X, it's through the middle of it.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
