Yes, the absolute value symbol does exist in MS Word 2007. Here's how you can insert it:
- Place your cursor where you want to insert the absolute value symbol.
- Click on the "Insert" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
- Click on the "Symbol" button in the "Symbols" section of the ribbon.
- In the drop-down menu, select "More Symbols."
- In the "Symbol" dialog box, select "Mathematical Operators" from the "Subset" drop-down menu.
- Scroll down until you find the absolute value symbol (it looks like two vertical lines with no horizontal line connecting them).
- Click on the symbol to select it, then click on the "Insert" button.
- The absolute value symbol should now be inserted into your document.
Alternatively, you can also type the absolute value symbol using the keyboard shortcut
"Alt + 124" (make sure to use the numeric keypad, not the numbers at the top of the keyboard).
