    In excel how do I show a divide sign

    I am trying to use the traditional divide symbol in a spreadsheet but I can
    only find it in the "symbol" font. I want to use "Arial" font. Is there a
    way of using the font I want?

    In case you need other symbols, Jon Peltier has an ASCII table that you
    can download, with all the character codes:
