How do you make a diamond in Word-not using wing ding or bullets?

[Dawn]

How can you make a diamond (or other characters) in Word NOT using WingDing
fonts or bullets? Specifically, a diamond (solid). Thanks!

I didn't see a solid diamond in there, but thanks. I am looking for maybe a
code or "Ctrl" "Alt" command??!?? The document I seen it in, when the cursor
is placed over the diamond, it doesn't change the "Arial" font description.

There isn't a solid diamond - you have to fill it in yourself, with the color
you want (fill color)

It's Unicode character 2666. If you open the Symbol dialog from an
insertion point in the Arial font, then "(normal text)" represents Arial,
and this character is included in the Arial font (and other Windows Core
Fonts, such as Times New Roman).

It's a character not a "symbol" and it doesn't use a WingdDing or other font
as per spec.
