Default How to make a cents symbol in Excel 2007

"Scott Salt Lake" wrote in message
...
I read a comment about using Alt + 0162 to make a cents symbol (c with a
slash through it). But it was for Excel 2003. I tried it in Excel 2007
and
just got beeps for an error. How do you do it in 2007?

It should work in any program, Alt-0162 is the code to display a cents
symbol in most common fonts.

Are you using a font that uses this code for something else? Try using a
common font like Arial and see if it works.
