You can put Jim's little notes in using ♪ for ♪ and ♫ for ♫.

They work, but as you saw, when you copy them they get mangled. They aren't HTML approved, but mickeysoft doesn't care.

Looks like you're happy with what you've got. No argument with that.

I use the CharMap fairly often. If a character is not "typable" it will show you the ANSI/ASCI code for the character when you click it. I don't usually copy and paste from CharMap, since it messes with format (it doesn't pick up the point size of the document when you paste.)

Once I get the number from CharMap, hold down the Alt key while you type the number (with a 0 first) on the numpad, and you can "type" any ANSI character. It won't do more than 4 digits, including the first 0, so you can't use it for those high number ones.


For the benefit of those who have Word, but not Bill D's suggested utility:
Hold down CTL and type an apostrophe (') If the next letter you type is A, E, I, O, U, Y, a, e, i, o, u or y, you will get Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú,Ý, á, é, í, ó, ú or ý.
Hold down CTL and type the "accent grave" (`). If the next letter is A, E, I, O, U, a, e, i, o, or u, you will get À, È, Ì, Ò, Ù, à, è. ì, ò, ù.
Hold down CTL-SHIFT and type a caret (^). If the next letter is A, E, I, O, U, a, e, i, o, or u, you will get
Â, Ê, Î, Ô, Û, â, ê, î, ô, û.
Hold down CTL-SHIFT and type a tilde (~). If the next letter is A, N, O, a, n, or o you will get Ã, Ñ, Õ, ã, ñ, or õ.
Hold down CTL-SHIFT and type a colon (:). If the next letter you type is A, E, I, O, U, U, a, e, i, o, u, or y, you will get Ä, Ë, Ï, Ö, Ü, Ÿ, ä, ë, ï, ö, ü, or ÿ.
Hold down CTL-SHIFT and type an "at" (@). If the next letter you type is A or a, you get Å or å.
Hold down CTL-SHIFT and type an ampersand (&). If the next letter you type an A, O, a, or o, you get Æ, Œ, æ, or œ.
Hold down CTL and type a comma (,). If the next letter you type is c or C, you get ç, or Ç.
Hold down CTL and type an apostrophe ('). If the next letter you type is d or D, you get ð or Ð.
Hold down CTL and type a "slash" (/). If the next letter you type is o or O, you get ø or Ø.
Hold down ALT+CTL+SHIFT while you type a ? and you will get a ¿.
Hold down ALT+CTL+SHIFT while you type an exclamation (!) and you get ¡.
Hold down CTL-SHIFT while you type an ampersand (&). If the next letter is s, you get ß.


If you hold down the ALT key and type 0163 on the NumPad, you get £.
Hold down the ALT and type 0165 on the numpad to get ¥.
