Answer: How do I find and insert male and female symbols?
No worries, you can still insert male and female symbols in Office 2007 even if they are not in the Symbol menu. Here's how:
If you need to insert these symbols frequently, you can also add them to the "Quick Access Toolbar" for easy access. Simply right-click on the symbol and select "Add to Quick Access Toolbar".

How do I find and insert male and female symbols?
You can use their unicode values. In Word type 2640 (female) or 2642 (male)
and then press ALT+X For other possible gender codes, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_symbol Yves "Dr.Salticid" wrote in message ... These symbols are not in the Symbol menu in Office 2007. |

How do I find and insert male and female symbols?
Unfortunately, these symbols don't appear in the default Calibri and Cambria
fonts, but if you change the font to Times New Roman or Arial, you will find them in the Miscellaneous Dingbats character subset, at 2640 and 2642. If you insert them using the Alt+X method, you will see that Word changes the font to Arial or TNR. -- Suzanne S.
