MS Office Forum / Word / Printing and Fonts / September 2004"Almost equal to"
How can I get an "almost equal to" sign in a word document? I would prefer an "=" sign with a "~" directly above it, but would settle for 2 "~" one above the other. I usually use the Times New Roman, but would use whatever it takes to get that symbol. I have searched the chatacter map, but could not find anything that helped. I thought that there would be a "alt+XXXX" type command to give me what I need. Thanks for the help > How can I get an "almost equal to" sign in a word > document?

What's the most irritating thing on Usenet? 2248 is a symbol for "approximately equal to," but the one Ken asked for is also available in the Symbol dialog (character 0064). SignatureSuzanne S.
