I'll experinment with that, however I'm not sure how that will help. The
horizontal alignment doesn't seem to be the problem, it's the combination of
a regular text for the numbers (times new roman, font 10pt) and various
symbols such as wingdings or WS MathExtendedA (of varying fonts). For some
reason the combination changes the alignment of the regular number, and it
the center of the vertical center of the regular number is not at the same
place as the vertical center of the symbol.

However, I will try your suggestion to see what happens. Thank you.

Hi folks,

I have a nice looking, formatted table, with one problem. Most of the
cells contain numbers and sometimes a symbol or a wingding (like an
arrow).
The entire table is formatted to be centered vertically and horizontally.
However, the cells with both a number and a symbol/webding don't align
with
the other cells with just numbers. It's actually very messy looking.
I've
tried adjusting the row sizes to be equal, it didn't work.

The wingdings and symbols begin to look like subscripts and superscripts,
but I need them to aling with the numbers vertically. Any thoughts?
