Help with Mathematical Operators

William Cruz

I am currently working on a math project & I would like to know how to
show the mathematical operators (symbols) on my equations. I know, or I
think it has to do something with the Unicode but I just can't seem to
find anything on it. Can someone please guide me in the right direction
on how I could @ least access these symbols? Thanks in advance.

Which symbols? "=", "+", "-", etc.?

No, those are easy to access, I mean something of this nature. "燔 ã"
I used MS Word to import these. There is alot more, but showed up as as
square when I passed them in. MathCAD would be a good example.

Sorry, my previous message did not present the characters correctly. I
am looking for something besides the operators that you presented. A
good example would be like the square root and others not provided @ the
ASCII level.

can you use the excape sequence for hex /x and insert the ascii code?

is it something like '/x41' to give "A" ? and '/x61' = "a" ?

Ive seen some extended formula characters on a physics forum, with all of
the math operators known, if there is some way to include THOSE? then Im
really interested.

its probably something in the future that languages will have, right now its
still kind of primitive with the 100 year old ascii set

You cannot use these escape sequences in VB. Use the 'ChrW' function
instead and make sure the font used to display the formula contains glyphs
for the characters you are using.
