Excel Symbols

Is there a way to insert new symbols into the symbols tray. I can't seem to
find the folder.

I do not think you can add new symbols, since they are all font-related like character map. Perhaps there are hacks out there as workarounds, but I do remember seeing one.

You can take symbols from CharMap.
You will also have to change the font accordingly.

I add the CharMap to a menu as described on
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/rexx/htm/symbols.htm

Or you could install Chip Pearson's "Symbolizer", don't know
what provisions there are for adding symbols though, since I've
never used it. There is a link on the above page.
