Insert/Symbol

Select one of the Unicode Fonts
e.g. Arial Unicode MS
Character code 211E From: Unicode (Hex)

It is called quot;Prescription Takequot;--ron

I think xl2002 added it.

Chip Pearson has an addin that may help (if you're using xl2k or lower).

(look for Symbolizer and make sure you get the correct version)

You could pop open CharMap, too:
windows start button|Run
type charmap
and hit enter.

I'm not sure. I have XL2002. If yours does not have it, you can always paste
it in from Character Map.

To run character map, select Start/Run and type charmap.exe into the entry box
that opens. Then you can select one of the unicode fonts and find the Rx
symbol.--ron
