Default How can I insert symbols (&, %, etc) in a drop down box in Word?

I would like to insert symbols (&, @, % etc in a drop down box in WORD. I
have some customers names (Tom Jones & Son, Larry Smith @ ABC Company). How
can I do this. I type the symbols in the "drop-down item" box, but when I use
that item, the symbol does not appear. Nor when I print the form it does not
appear.
