Hi Sue

On the status bar at the very top near to the date/time.

It varies a bit depending on the version of MacOS you have.
With 10.3 on the desktop it's a Union flag (or Stars & Stripes if you'r set to 
US preferences)
With 10.6 which I have on the MacBook it's a b&w box with containing an 
asterisk and a couple of dots.

Click and hold for the drop-down menu and select 'show character viewer'
You then get more characters than you will ever need.  Just highlight he one 
you want and then 'insert' and it will g into your document at the curser 
position.
