Until recently I was using Office 2000, and had no problem locating and
inserting the degree symbol into my math notes. Now I am using Office 2007,
and the degree symbol is gone. I have tried the "help", which did not. It
gave an "Auto Correct" item ("/degree") however that did not work (and I did
not change any presets of Office 07 - so I'd thing the "Auto Correct" would
be on already). I tried to search for the degree symbol in the "Insert
Symbol/More Symbols" section, but other than clicking on each and every
symbol to find out its name I cannot locate it. Maybe a good addition to the
symbol section would ber a "search" section- that would locate the symbol you
want if you type in its name (or something close to its spelling).
