In Excel, the Alt+ symbols after 255 are inconsistent, but the ASCII codes work fine. These symbols also work in Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and PowerPoint. See the charts (above and below) for several dozen interesting and useful symbols to decorate your documents and emails. It’s always fun to insert a happy face (Alt+ 1) ☺ or (Alt+ 9786) ☺or a snowman (Alt+ 9731) ☃. Notice that many of the 9,000-level symbols are repeats of the original set (1 thru 255).
Start with 1,000 and try some random numbers through 10,078. The Alt+ codes extend out five digits, so if you can’t find the symbol you’re looking for, play around with the numbers and see what you get. That’s why so many users get discouraged when looking for the British pound symbol £ (Alt+ 0163) and end up with the lowercase Latin letter acute accent ú (Alt+ 163)-which is also found at Alt+ 0250. In fact, Alt+ 1 through Alt+ 31 (without the preceding zeroes) are icon symbols (such as happy faces, card suits, astrology icons, etc.) and 176 through 223 are graphic lines and polygons.
But the coolest of all are the graphics and icon symbols.

In addition to the keyboard characters, you’ll find decimal codes for Greek and Latin letters, accent letters, pronunciation symbols over the alphabet, and mathematical symbols, such as the division and square root operators, the accent grave and circumflex symbols, plus worldwide currency symbols, and more. For example, Alt+ 0251 = û (the Latin small letter u with circumflex symbol above it) while Alt+ 251 = √ (the square root sign)-and so forth until you reach 256, which is the same as 0256 (both produce the pronunciation symbol for an uppercase ‘long’ A that is, Ā). You can test this yourself by entering both versions of these numbers.

Somewhere around the decimal code 256, the preceding zero is no longer necessary. Remember to press and hold the Alt key and enter a 0 (zero) before each code for example: if the chart shows 169 as the copyright symbol, you must enter 0169 (that is, from 0 through 255). Two I’ve visited are and another is Special Characters - Alt Code Sequences. The Internet provides dozens of websites that chart the ASCII and symbol tables. Facts and Information on Greek God of the Sky MS lesions on the spine: Connection, diagnosis, and treatment 15 unmistakable qualities of a bad manager.It’s certainly a lot faster to type Alt+0169 (the copyright symbol) than to search for it and insert it from the Symbols library, especially if you have to insert it 40 times a day. For volume entries, try the ASCII Codes instead Notice that Word provides the number of the Character Code from the ASCII Decimal table plus the name of the symbol and the Alt+ key combination (or Shortcut key) at the bottom of the Symbols dialog window. But what if you use the copyright and trademark symbols 25 to 30 times in a single document? Or what if you use em dashes in every other paragraph, or lots of fractions, or accent marks in every five to six words (there’s over three dozen accent characters alone)? JD Sartain / IDGĠ1 Insert Symbols from the Symbols Library For occasional usage, this is a nice feature. Word remembers the last 20 symbols you inserted and places them in the dialog window (sort of like a symbol speed-dial). Select More Symbols and choose one from the Symbols Library (from the “normal text” font).
