Where did my symbols go?

[Guest]

under 'insert' I have the 'Symbols' command but when clicked nothing comes up
at all. How do I get my symbols back?

Once again, I have the 'symbols' under the 'insert' command but when
clicked, no symbols appear.

Thanks,

JIM

That can happen if you inadvertently created a macro named InsertSymbol.

What happens if you start Word using the /a switch? Does Insert - Symbol
work now?

Thanks for the scoop. We went ahead and downloaded the symbols from micosoft
and they seem t obe working fine now.

This is nonsense. I'd love to know what you really did.
