Clueless in Seattle

I recently switched from Word 97 to Word 2003 and am having a lot of
trouble adjusting to the differences between the two programs.

For example, in Word 97, one of the bullet options was a little symbol
that looked like a tiny checkbox.

But the Bullets and Numbering menu in Word 2003 doesn't seem to include
that particular bullet.

How may I get that bullet back on the Bullets and Numbering menu?

In the Customize Bulleted List dialog, click Character. Choose the Wingdings
font and select your checkbox.

Wow! That was a rapid response!

Many thanks!

Wing Dings?! Why didn't I think of that? ;o)
