How do I place a line on top of a character or alphabit letter?

[daycat]

I'm trying to type out roman numeral 6023. VI has to have a line over the
top to represent 6000. How do I do that?

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Overbar.htm. FWIW, note that there is
a roman numeral character set in the Unicode range 2160-2182, but they're
available only in "large" Unicode fonts such as Arial Unicode MS, and
they're pretty ugly and *don't* have bars top and bottom, either.

Thank you for your prompt answer. I think I can get it to work after playing
with it for awhile.
Should be an easier way.
