Symbols ▼ , ▲ are normally displayed in my previous Excel 2010.

However, when I update to Excel 2013, the captions on the command buttons simply display chaotic characters.

Is it possible to have it displayed properly in Excel 2013?

I am using ActiveX command buttons. The "Property Window" can display ▼ and ▲ correctly in the caption field.



Thanks a lot!

Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Have you tried changing the font to wingdings3 and using 'q' and 'p'?
