Default Placing triangle symbols WITHIN cell for significance testing

Hi. Do Insert | Symbol | symbols tab.
Select "Arial" from the Font box (Upper left)
Select "Unicode" in From box (Lower Right)
Enter your Hex code in the "character code" box.

HTH :)

Hi,

I want to insert symbols (Arial font) 25BC, 25B2, 25C4 and 25BA from
Unicode (hex) -- Their descriptions are Black down-pointing
triangle/up-pointing triangle/left-pointing and right pointing triangle.

I tried code(1) to code(255) but none of them yielded the triangles I
require. I want to do this using a programmatic approach.

Is it possible and if yes, please guide me.

Thanks a lot,
Hari

PS: - I would be running some formulas for comparing cells across 2
columns (Z-test) and based on the result (True or false) would like to
place one of these symbols in the third column of the same row. then using
R Bovey's chart labeler show the significances in my charts.
