I need to put into a text box a the Copyright symbol (C) +
Product Name + TM symbol (the Product Name is produced by
a function call). I have been unable to find a font or
tecnique to do this.

I have created a text box and put the (C) in there as a
symbol, created a text box and put the Product Name in it
and placed a text box after it and put the TM in as a
symbol. On one screen it looks file but on another screen
the TM can overlay the product name or there can be an
inch or more distance from the end of the product name to
the TM symbol

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

George

Depending on the Font Used these may or may not show up but the Character
map codes are as follows

© -- Copyright Symbol -- Hold down [ALT] and type 0169
T -- Trademark Symbol -- Hold down [ALT] and type 0153
you could probably put the on the products themselves eliminating the need
for the separate field but that is up to you I just give you the means how
you get it there is up to you
Good Luck

George,
Several "mainstream" fonts have the TM character (no circle), along with
(C) and (R). In Arial, your text string would be...
= Chr(169) & " " & MyProductName & " " & Chr(154)
yields © ProductName T
Use the CharacterMap (commonly referred to as CharMap) mini-app that
comes with Windows to browse you're fonts to find the one that best meets
your needs, and style.

George,
I had a typing error in my previous response (see asterisks)

> = Chr(169) & " " & MyProductName & " " & Chr(154)

> yields © ProductName T <**

I discovered that I didn't mistype my previous responses. Evidently the
"email" is converting my Chr(153) TM to just "T" in mine... and Kevin's
reponses.
Perhaps we've uncovered a "secret" email control code? :-)
