[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1454148, member: 46727"] Sorry about the late response, been away all day. Your "normal template" in Word 2011 may be corrupt and that could be the reason you're not able to insert the symbols. The only way to fix that is to delete the template and let Word create a new one the next time Word opens. By deleting the normal template that will also remove all your adjustments you made to it, such as menus. Close Word and any other Office applications first. To delete the template navigate to: Macintosh HD/Users/your user name/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/normal.dotm Delete "normal.dotm" but do not empty the Trash. Word will create a new template for you the next time it opens. If that doesn't resolve the problem, delete the new template and restore the old one from the Trash. [/QUOTE]
