The division sign is there, you just have to look for it. In most fonts it is
under the Latin-1 subset (in Arial the keyboard shortcut is Alt+0247.) Also
it is character number 184 in the symbol font.

When you want to type characters that are not on the keyboard, Word has a
function called 'insert symbols.' Guess what? I looked for a simple division
sign. You would expect to find it under 'mathematical operators?' Think
again. The only division sign you will find is the slash. So when my kids
grow up and see a division sign, they will not know what it is. For that
matter there is no multiplication sign either. Once again, my kids will only
associate the star with a multiplication sign. Why, why, why are we letting
Microsoft make our kids dunces? They charge an arm and a leg for software
and what do you get in return? English that would make our English speaking
ancestors turn in their graves?
