Hello Scott, If it's installed, somewhere under your Windows Start > Programs > Accessories menu there should be a utility called "Character Map". This is a tool which shows all the characters for a chosen font. Choose WingDings and click upon the required character. In the bottom right corner, there is a tip on how to type that character by using the "Alt" key plus a number. For example, in WingDings, the Microsoft Windows logo is the last character, value 255. This value is what you need in your call to MakeFontSymbol().
