A few more experiments and ideas best done in Word or similar first*. Then copied and pasted into NavList:
1. Try 'Wingdings ^' to get ^.
2. As Aries is almost always preceded by LHA or similar, try typing 'Times New Roman italic T'. e.g. 'LHA T'. It should be obvious what you mean.
3. All these tricks involve several key presses and font changes, but 'Aries' is only five letters, so why not just type 'Aries', as you might type 'SqRt' or 'Sqd', if you're as keyboard illiterate as me. DaveP
* Otherwise you won't be able to slip in and out of different fonts.
