Hi, I'd like to print a left pointing arrow in a label. Is there a chrW character (looks better that "<--")

Assuming you can get chrW to print, some I've tried just print a question mark.

Or, really silly question, can you map a char like user-defined graphics on a Commodore 64 ?
If everything fails is a graphic image the solution ?

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
=UNICHAR(8592)

or hex 2190.

To find other arrows, go to Insert > Symbols> Symbol > Subset: Arrows. The displayed symbol characters vary widely with font face.

There's also a left-pointing indicator U+25C4.

Thanks. How would you print these (in the debug window) or add into a label ?

Ah! I forgot—the characters can't be printed directly via VBA. I can't get them to print in a UserForm text box or in the immediate window. I'm sorry, I have misled you.
