Average Symbol
I've been looking for a while for the average/mean symbol which is an "X"
with a line over the top of it. To find it I went Insert/Symbols/ various Subsets such as Mathematical Operators with various fonts, yet I have not been able to locate the symbol. Do you know where I might be able to find it? or could you tell me how to enter X so that I can get a line to go over it? |

Average Symbol
See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/C...Characters.htm. You may be able to
use the macro (Unicode 0304) or the overbar (Unicode 0305) from the Combining Diacritical Marks section with the X, but in many fonts the characters don't align properly. The overstrike field works, but it's cumbersome. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
