Is there a way to have the zero appear with a slash thru it?
I hav checked the symbol library and have had no luck.

Thanks

That has to do with the font you have selected. There are very few these
days that put the slash through. The only font I could find that did it was
the Consolas font.

Download the free set of slashed zero fonts from Ham Fonts.

http://www.wm8c.com/slashed_zero_fonts.htm

Unzip to a folder then install whatever one(s) you want through
Windows>Fonts>File>Install New Font.

Just to add to Gord's reply...

If you share the file with anyone else, you'll want to share the font with the
recipients, too--and instructions on how to install a font in Windows.

You can't embed fonts in Excel workbooks. (It's different from MSWord.)
