Checkmark In Filemaker

[treesed]

I am creating report cards for my elementary school using Filemaker V5. I want to do a drop-down box for grades where one of them is a checkmark. I can't figure out how to add that character to the drop-down list. I am creating the files on a pc running Windows 2000 but they will also be used on Macs.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

It is different on both machines, but on the Mac an Option-v is a check mark. On the PC... I'm not sure.

Even worse, it can be different depending upon the font in use.

If you wanna guarantee a checkmark, use a checkmark graphic. Although this will have to be the results of a calculation.
