Dear Markus and All, You are right. I am using the Microsoft keyboard shortcut to produce � and I had no idea that this was not the degree sign. Now I don't know where to find the degree sign. I shall have to send out a search party.
What about this � or this � or this � or this � ? How do these appear to you?
