Format cells for special characters

M

Mad Davy Cash

I downloaded a "to do List" that has a function whereby entering "a" into the
cell, brings back the checkmark unicode character.

How is this set up?

If the cell is formatted as Marlett font, typing an "a" will enter the
checkmark.

Insert>Symbol will open a dialog so's you can see a list of fonts, characters
and the ascii number for each.

Or just Start>Run "charmap" to open the Windows CharMap
