In WordPerfect, I can open upa document and then do a Ctrl-W which
opens up a dialog box of special characters. In windows Xp, it is the
Charater Map.

I need to know if there a Word item similar to the WordPerfect item of
4,16 which appears to be a superscript 00.

thanks
 
Insert, Symbol.

However, I'm not familiar with WP and have no idea what the symbol is that
you are referring to. The symbol selection is governed by the font set that
you use: if the symbol is included with a particular font, the symbol will
be available.

Character 4,16, "masculine Spanish ordinal," is part of the standard ASCII
(Latin-1) character set, ASCII 186 or Unicode 00BA, but it is a superscript
o, not a superscript 0 (much less 00). I don't think there is any such
character as the one you describe, unless perhaps it is the per mille sign,
glyph 2030, in the General Punctuation character subset.

Try to use the ASCII CODES
press the ALT KEY and the corresponde ASCII CODE NUMBER.
In this case use: ALTKEY & 167 º
 
Alt+0167 produces the Pilcro §.

Alt+0167 is not a pilcrow (¶) but a section symbol.

Whoops. Yes that's correct. I had the correct symbol but used wrong name!

Josie shared this with us in microsoft.public.word.newusers:
Try to use the ASCII CODES
press the ALT KEY and the corresponde ASCII CODE NUMBER.
