Duane, here is one way to insert Check marks, format your cells as Marlett
then type the letter "A".

Use Paul's with a lower case a instead of A
BTW. It is considered rude (shouting) to type in all caps. Please use proper
case or all lower case.

 

[Paul B]

Don, thanks for pointing that out, you are right it should be a lower case
a.

IMHO - A much better "looking" check mark (tick), is obtained by using an
upper case (capital) P in the WingDings2 font.

Hold down the Alt key and type 251 and then let it up

the Alt key. The ASCII character looks like a check. It
is a sq. root sign.

You will have to change the font when if you copy from Window Char
accessory.
