I want to get a STAR in my Word messages. Which font or where do I find it?
i.e. typing a star from the key board.

Many fonts include one or more star characters. The most likely to have what
you want, however, are those in the Wingdings family. Use Insert Symbol
(Word 2003 or prior) or click Symbol & select More Symbols on the Insert Tab
of the Ribbon in Word 2007.

Once you find what you like you can note the keystroke (if there is one)
from the dialog & memorize it or you can create an AutoCorrect Item for
future use.

Alternatively you can use the AutoShapes drawing tools to create a
"floating" shape or format it as In Line with Text.

Or create a keyboard shortcut for it from the Insert Symbol panel.
