Directed arrows

[Fred Ridder]

Character styles define styling (format) characteristics--some combination of font family, size, wieght, angle, alignment, spacing, etc.  It does not in any way specify particular characters to use. I think what you want to do is define a user variable that has the appropriate character style applied as part of its defintion.

To avoid confusion with the “greater than” arrow, we use Wingdings Alt+0216 for a stylized arrow in procs. For example, “Click Start > SomethingElse > SomethingElse.”
I’m trying to define this as a Character style but all I can seem to accomplish is the font family, not the decimal symbol character code Alt+0216.
Whaddya wanna bet this is going to an embarrassingly obvious answer? Please, someone: embarrass me!
TIA,
~~Gay
