Keep looking. It's character 112 in the symbol font, or 03C0 in any ordinary
Unicode font. (assuming you want lower case). "Tammy Bulluck" Tammy wrote in message ... Is there a way to insert the PI symbol into a word document? I cannot find when I Insert, Symbol. Thanks! |

In the Symbok dialog, try switching the character subset to Basic Greek. (I'm
working with 2003.) Or, type 03A0 and then press Alt+x. For small letter PI, try 03C0 followed by Alt+x. -- tj "Tammy Bulluck" wrote: Is there a way to insert the PI symbol into a word document? I cannot find when I Insert, Symbol. Thanks! |

It is preferable to insert the pi character from the "(normal text)" font
(Basic Greek character subset) OR to use Insert | Symbol to insert it as a protected symbol from the Symbol font. This will ensure that it will not revert to "p" if the font of the surrounding text is changed. -- Suzanne S.
