Check mark?
 
Hi everyone. I was wondering if there is an alt code to make a check mark?
Or if anyone knows a way to do it...
Thanks

www.google.com , search for

Extended ASCII Display Characters
or
download a maths font
or
If it's a PC (or maybe MAC) look through the Windings code 0xFC (type)
of fonts.

It may not be the same character for every font set. Have you tried the
character map? You can pick / copy the character you need then past into
the application.

Because, as you have already been told, it depends on the
font being used. All normal system fonts do *not* have
the check mark. You can find it in fonts such as wingdings,
amongst others.
