Insert | Symbol and choose character U00B6 (in the Latin-1 character
subset). You can assign a shortcut key if desired by selecting the character and clicking Shortcut Key... Alternatively, you can press Alt and type 0182 on the numeric keypad. -- Suzanne S.

Or type 00b6 Alt-X (regular number keys).

Indeed. Being somewhat innumerate, I have difficulty remembering those
combinations, so I do better with a keyboard shortcut that involves letters. If I were doing this one, I'd have to use Ctrl+Alt+P since I have Ctrl+Shift+P assigned to opening Microsoft Publisher. -- Suzanne S.

I only first used a Unicode number the other day when I was making a
chart on the basis of the manual that came with a font full of Private Use Area characters -- for Luwian hieroglyphs, as it happens. Happily, both that number and the glyph's number in the standard catalog of the script were included in the manual's chart. Otherwise, if I don't go to the trouble of activating a keyboard (and trying to find the instructions for its dead keys etc.), it's Insert Symbol or BabelMap all the way.

I'm not familiar with BabelMap. I have used Character Map but have never
found it very congenial. But I do use Insert | Symbol for all but the most commonly used symbols (to which I have assigned keyboard shortcuts). In fact, when working in other apps that don't have a Symbol dialog (such as Outlook Express) I tend to switch to Word, insert the symbol, then copy/paste into the other app. -- Suzanne S.

Anyone who works with Private Use Area characters needs BabelMap
(since they seem to be invisible to Insert Symbol); but it's much more informative and useful than CharacterMap generally. (You'll be impressed with how many different languages you can enter with just the fonts that came with Windows and/or Office.) On Sep 28, 7:45*pm, "Suzanne S.
