Anybody know the trick ? Merci ! JFG. This works in Excel 2007 - I don't have any other version to try it on. Type in on of the footer boxes: <alt-190 description By <alt-190 I mean to hold down the <alt key and, while holding it down, type 190 on the NUMERIC KEYPAD (not on the numbers above the keyboard). After typing the 190, release the <alt key. Then, with the cursor, select the symbol that appeared when you typed <alt-190. Click on the font button (looks like an "A"), and select the wingdings 2 font. --ron |
