A macro won't run while you're in Edit Mode so you cannot set the cursor in
theside the cell text and have your symbol inserted.

You can have it inserted at beginning or end of existing text.

Sub Add_Symbolt()
Dim cell As Range
Dim moretext As String
Dim thisrng As Range
On Error GoTo endit
whichside = InputBox("Left = 1 or Right =2")
Set thisrng = Range(ActiveCell.Address & "," & Selection.Address) _
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, xlTextValues)
moretext = Chr(216)
If whichside = 1 Then
For Each cell In thisrng
cell.Value = moretext & cell.Value
Next
Else
For Each cell In thisrng
cell.Value = cell.Value & moretext
Next
End If
Exit Sub
endit:
MsgBox "only formulas in range"
End Sub

In most cases we want to insert the symbol after the text. What we really
want is the ability to press 1 key and insert the symbol before or after the
text.

A symbol is just a character in a special font. Do you want the symbol to
replace the text in the cell or precede the text in the cell or follow the
text in the cell?

I have created a macro that inserts a symbol into the active cell. If I have
entered text in a cell and try to use my macro it won't work. What code do I
need in my macro to enable me to insert my symbol while entering text?
