How do I add a "Degrees" symbol to my code. I don't have the symbol
available on my keyboard. Thanks.

The keystroke for it is: Alt + 0176
Look in Start Menu -> Accessories -> Character Map (or in Accessories ->
System Tools I think) for more.

Just as Addition.

Be aware that this ALT + 0176 is no standard ASCII for those working in
cultures/languages where 1252 is not the code page.

As CMM wrote is the Characther Map (the special character tool) whatever
name it has in your used language, the best place to look for.

Mhm... I assume you wanted to type "character code" instead of "ASCII" ;-).
