The code for one fifth is 8533.
Insert the following UDF:
Function unicd(r As Long) As String
unicd = ChrW(r)
End Function
Format A1 as Ariel MS Unicode
In A1 enter:
=unicd(8533)
User Defined Functions (UDFs) are very easy to install and use:
1. ALT-F11 brings up the VBE window
2. ALT-I
ALT-M opens a fresh module
3. paste the stuff in and close the VBE window
If you save the workbook, the UDF will be saved with it.
To remove the UDF:
1. bring up the VBE window as above
2. clear the code out
3. close the VBE window
To use the UDF from Excel:
=unicd(A1)

I would like to insert 1/5 as a fraction header for a column. You can select
from the symbol menus say for instance under the Airal choices menu as there
are a small number of fraction signs to select. I do not want to particular
type in 1/5 or 1/5th as I want the looks that are obtained from using the
symbol inputs.
Does anybody know how you might achieve this?
Thanks
