In Excel, what is CharMap.exe, where do I find it and how do I get help using
it? I need to include characters which are normally only found in MSWord.From that other thread:
Insert Symbol was added in xl2002.
So if you don't run xl2002 , you'll have to find a different way.
You can hit flying windows R (or windows start buttonRun)
type charmap
hit enter
or even
windows start buttonProgramsaccessoriesSystem toolscharmap
if you like to mouse.
Chip Pearson has an addin that may help (if you're using xl2k or lower).

To do so programmatically, try something like this ..Option Explicit
Sub ShowCharMap()
'Define the variable
Dim WsShell As Object
'Set the varible
Set WsShell = CreateObject(quot;WScript.Shellquot;)
'Run the variable
WsShell.Run (quot;charmapquot;)
'Clean up objects
Set WsShell = Nothing
End SubHTH
