Inserting Symbols into Mail

[RichUE]

I searched the Help for guidance on inserting symbols into email, such as
square root. The alternatives seem to be:
Character Map, which is effective but long-winded,
Insert, Symbol, which is not available unless you are using Word as the
editor,
Character code, which is fine as long as you can remember the code
Autocorrect, which again assumes Word is the editor.

If I don't wish to use Word, how can I get a list of character codes? I
could reduce this presumably long list to those characters of interest and
put those in a Note as a reminder for use during email composition.
Would it be possible to create a toolbar to insert them directly in the
Outlook email editor?

If you know VBA then you can insert those characters via a Macro and create
toolbar for it.
