Symbol font has what you want. Pull up your Character map. It's marked
character code 0xB8. I wish I could tell you how to type that but I can't. If it were me, I'd copy and paste it in. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "superjen" wrote in message ... my mum is a primary school teacher.. she wants to use microsoft word to create a list of simple sums for her class... like ' 16 shared by 4= four' . but we can't find a mathematical divide symbol, even in 'symbols'..... only these ones are close, and they appear on the keyboard anyway!..... : - + = /.... we need one of the standard ones with the horizontal stripe and a dot both top and bottom.... any help would be really greatfully received... something easy would also be good as she's not very computer literate! thanks! :-) |
