If your version of XL doesn't support Insert | Symbol... (I don't know
when MS introduced it), use the Character Map program in Windows. In
Win XP it is Windows Taskbar | Start | All Programs | Accessories |
System Tools | Character Map.

Find the symbol you like, then copy+paste into XL.

I want to check out a number of entries in a spreadsheet. The program is
Excel in MS Office 2000. I want to use the typical " check out" symbol. I
have not found it
in( what I believe) is the set of available symbols coming with it. Can you
help me?
Thank you for that.
