I have forms and reports that deal with purchase orders that have frequent
revisions. We add a delta (triangle) to the line item that is being revised

How do I print a delta character with VB? How can I enter one on a form?

Thanks

You're going to need to use either a graphic or a font that includes the
delta character. On my computer, the Symbol font has this character as
Chr(68), the equivalent of a capital "D" in the more common fonts. You
won't be able to mix fonts within a single control (unless you use a
third-party rich textbox control), so you'll want to create a separate
text box on forms and reports, set to the Symbol font or its equivalent,
just to hold the delta character.
 
Darn

I was hoping there was an easy access or VB constant like vbDeltaChar or
acPrintDelta

Thanks for your help.
