[FONT=Times New Roman, serif] [/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]It took me a minute to figure it out but its really neat☺[/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]As a writer, this is a real help. I no longer have to go to the Insert icon and then click through a couple of portals to hunt for the special symbol I need. [/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]¡ and ¿ are ones I use a lot and this will allow me to go on without losing my train of thought.[/FONT]

For me, the © is a right-CTRL + Shift + C. I use the CSA keyboard.

My two ¢.

The copyright and trademark symbols are in Word's default auto-correct, too. (r) becomes ®, (c) becomes ©.

Remember that you, too, can use auto-correct to do this, if you wish.

But I use what I call ALT-codes all the time, too.

As your image pointed out, you need the numeric keypad to do this.
