Hello All!
I don't have occasion to use non-standard symbols in Excel but I did
recently and got a little puzzled.
The Help file tells me
Unicode options
a.. If you know the character code for a Unicode character, you do not
need to open the Symbol dialog box. Type the Unicode hexadecimal
character code in the document, and then press ALT+X.
This will work in Word 2002 but not in Excel 2002. I know you can insert
a symbol to get characters from the full Unicode set but is Help
incorrect or am I doing something wrong?
