You do it in code like this: StaticText1.Text = "some special characters: " + Chr(169) + Chr(174) + Chr(153)
This works provided that the characters actually exist in the font specified for the StaticText control. The Windows default System font does not include a TM but Arial does. The default font, System, for StaticText will show an odd character for Chr(153). HTH Tom > I just today tried using the alt-0169, alt-0174, and alt-0153 > in a static text. 2 out of 3 worked.
