g'Day,

The following single characters appear in most fonts:
¼ ALT+0188
½ ALT+0189
¾ ALT+0190.

In Word they are usually implemented through AutoCorrect.

Word supports other characters that this News Reader application (Outlook
Express) does not support. Those characters represent the fractions:
1/3 2153 followed by ALT+X
2/3 2154 followed by ALT+X
1/8 215B followed by ALT+X
3/8 215C followed by ALT+X
5/8 215D followed by ALT+X
7/8 215E followed by ALT+X.

You can add these yourself to AutoCorrect.

These are the ONLY fractions generally available to Word as characters.

To improve on this,see:

or

for the general method.
