Unicode characters appearing as "?"

[Musha]

Is there a way to have VBA actually show a unicode character such as a down or up arrow? For example, I am trying to have VBA add a caption for a command button with the following symbol (&H2191). However, when I do this, it only shows a "?". Can anybody please offer any assistance on this matter?
Thank you.

Yes, this works. But I'm not having any problems getting the symbols to show up in the Excel cells. I'm trying to add a caption to a command button. I wasn't able to copy/paste the symbol I wanted onto the button, so I tried using VBA to add the caption. I'm having the same problem with either method, it just shows up as a "?" on the button.

I don't think controls will display Unicode characters.

You will have to check the character map on your computer.
Basically ALT + character number and possibly an X.
Inserts fine on a form button for me.

And how about on an ActiveX button?
