How to attach a TM symbol to text in a report? 1

[dontay]

Hi,
I'm trying to attach a TM symbol to text in an MS Access 2000 Report or Form.
Any ideas?

What do you mean by "attach"? Always have it as part of the text or just attach to the text when the report is generated/the form is loaded?
In the first case, just edit the text, hold the ALT key pressed and type "0153" on your numpad.

In the second case add
[blue]
Me.yourlabel.caption=Me.yourlabel.caption & chr(153)
[/blue]

In the OnOpen event of the form or the report.

P.S:ALT 0174 resp. Chr(174) is the registered symbol

Regards,

Thanks,
This is for a loaded form.
I can make a command button that will add the Registration Symbol Chr(174) but when I try to add the TM Symbol Chr (153) it just adds a vertical bar instead of the TM Symbol.
Thaks for your help.

This is because the font you chose for the control does not support the TM.
Set the font of the control that shall obtain the char to Arial or (Lucida Sans) Unicode.

fyi if you ever want to find more symbols, go your Windows Character Map (START - Program Files - Accessories - System Tools - Character Map)

you will find which code to use, and what font to put it in.
