How to insert musical symbols?

[Grandlife B]

How do I insert musical symbols using Word 2003?

 

[JoAnn Paules]

Use a font that contains the symbols. If you don't have one, search the web
for one to purchase.

That font was never offered with Word regardless of version.

 

[JoAnn Paules]

Neither. Nor were they offered with Windows XP or any other Microsoft
offering.

Many programs come with fonts, even some printers.

No clue. Never heard of that font nor have I ever needed a musical note
font. (I sing fine in my car, my shower, and my mind - that's the extent of
my musical talent.)

Is the font installed?

Ah, then that's a possibility. Thanks. I wonder why the first one I
mentioned, Helsinki Metronome, doesn't appear to work, though.

I can honestly say that although I am a fontaholic, there are no fonts
installed in my car, my shower, or my mind.
