Microsoft Word/How to insert therefore symbol

Advertisement


Question
Dear Mr Wiley

I wish to insert the three dot pyramid "therefore" symbol. I tried to search for it on the insert symbol toolbar with no avail.

I have Ms Word XP.

Thanks

Answer
Hi Muhammad,

It is a time consuming process to search for symbols isn't it?

You have a couple of choices.

One use Word's Symbol function or (Go the Insert, Symbol)

Two use the Windows Character Map (Go Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Character Map.)

Either of these options will present hundreds of choices for you to look through.

If you still don't find the symbol you want try searching for it at www.google.com

Good Luck.

Dale :-)

Microsoft Office and Microsoft Word in particular is one of the most popular programs that our firm, Computer Help provides instruction, one on one tutoring and consultation. I personally use MS Word for almost every task: Envelopes, Mailing Labels, Database, WordArt, Interactive Forms, Faxes, Letters, Lists, Newsletters, Tables, Email Editor and much more. The exception, Graphics and Web Pages. For graphics I use Ulead's PhotoImpact and Microsoft's FrontPage for web site design.
