Some had problem finding the check mark symbol to insert Word. I think its
possible that you have to have Monotype Sorts font type installed to get
this and other specific symbols. I notice this in Word 2002, 2000, 97, 95
and 6.0.
Install that font type and see if it works I'm positive it will. ;-)

This is entirely untrue, as there are check marks in Wingdings (0254) and
Wingdings 2 (0080 and 0082), both of which come with Windows.

I stand corrected, you are are right Ms. B, Wing Dings does contain the
Check Mark symbol, but I have also checked under Monotype sorts and it was
there too.

There are check marks in many fonts, of which Monotype Sorts is one (Zapf
Dingbats is another), but that doesn't make it true that you "have to have
Monotype Sorts font type installed" in order to get a check mark.
