How-To Geek  Use Special Characters in Windows  Sometimes you
might be working on an online form or other application where
you need to insert a special character. The Character Map
feature in Windows is an often overlooked feature that can help
you add special characters to your work.  To access the
Character Map in Vista or Windows 7, click on Start and enter
character map into the search box and hit Enter.   Now choose
the font which matches what you’re working in, select the
special character you want to use.  Then just paste the
character into your document, online form, or whatever app you
need to use it in.  If you want to navigate to it via the Start
Menu, go to Start \ All Programs \ Accessories \ System Tools \
Character Map.   Another way to quickly pull it up is to enter
charmap or charmap.exe into the run line.   This “oldie but
goodie” feature should help out those new to Windows, and
perhaps some users who have forgotten about it.     • Published
