Yeah, Character Map works. I don't have FM8 yet, but I would have 
thought they would have included something like Indesign's Glyph 
palette, or Word's Insert Symbol.

Windows, at the OS level, doesn't provide any way to type Unicode 
characters (beyond changing the keyboard layout). But you can get third 
party software that lets you type a hex code or an ALT 0000 numeric 
code. Take a look at http://www.cardbox.com/quick.htm.
