Putting a number, such as 5, in a circle.

[Ed]

I would like to make a long listing of 50 addresses, with each being numbered
accordingly. I would like to have each of all 50 numbers encircled, so that
they all stand out. Thanks.

The best plan would be to locate a font with numbers already encircled, but
most such fonts do not run to double figures - eg the free fonts linked from
http://www.gravic.com/remark/kb/?q=134
You could cobble something together with a series of EQ fields, but the best
plan might be to create the required number format using a graphics
application and use the graphics as 'bullets'

There are actually fonts that can do double figures; they do this by having
left and right halves for each number. If you google for "circled number
font," the first hit leads to CombiNumerals Pro. It's not free, but it's
only $14.95, and it can do even three-digit numbers, apparently. (Moreover,
there's evidently a freeware version that can do two digits.) And it looks
like you can add currency symbols, fractions, and other characters as well.
