How to insert square root symbol (√ ) in Word

Insert Square root symbol in Microsoft Office Word Using Keyboard Shortcut

Name:Square root
Symbol:√
Alt Code:221A
Shortcut (windows):221A, Alt+X
Shortcut (Mac):Option+V

Alt code

To type the square root symbol in Word,
  1. first type 221A, 
  2. then press Alt+X to convert the code into the symbol. On Mac, press Option+V on the keyboard.

Numeric Keypad

To insert this symbol (using the Alt code), follow these three simple steps:
  1. Place the insertion pointer at where you want to insert the symbol.
  2. Hold down the Alt key and type 251 on the numeric keypad
  3. and release the Alt key.

Using insert Equation

Microsoft Word has made typing Math symbols so easy with its insert Equation feature.

With this option, you can effortlessly insert almost any mathematical symbol into your word document.

Below are the steps to help you out:
  1. Place the insertion pointer where you want to insert the square root symbol.
  2. Press Alt+= on your keyboard to show the Equation Field.
  3. In this field, type \sqrt and press the spacebar.
  4. As soon as you press the space bar after typing \sqrt, word will insert the square root symbol into your Word document.

Copy and paste the Square root symbol

The copy and paste option can be the easiest option to insert this symbol into MS Word.

Irrespective of the software you are working with, you can always copy and paste any symbol into your work.

Below is the Square root symbol if you want to copy and paste it into your work:

√

Using Insert Symbol Dialog

This method and the next doesn’t involve using the keyboard. Therefore, it can only be used in Microsoft Office applications that have the insert symbol function such as Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint or Access.
Below are the steps to insert the square root symbol using the Insert Symbol dialog.
  1. On the Insert tab, click the Symbol button and Click More Symbols…
  2. The Symbols dialog box will appear. It’s now the time to look for the symbol you want to insert (the Square root symbol).
  3. Locate the Symbol
    1. In the gallery of symbols, look for the square root symbol by scrolling up or down using the scroll bar.
    2. If you cannot find the symbol, at the bottom right area of the dialog, select Unicode (hex) in the from drop-down. Again, at the top right area of the dialog, select Mathematical Operators in the Subset drop-down.
    3. This way, only the Mathematical Operators including the Square root symbol will show in the visible area of the Symbols dialog.
    4. After inserting, close the Symbol dialog box.
This is how you may insert the Square root symbol into Word/Excel/PowerPoint/Access using the insert symbol dialog.

Using AutoCorrect

Another way to obtain the Square root symbol is through the use of AutoCorrect feature.

It is a facility designed for correcting spelling mistakes. For example, if you type thsi Word will correct it to this.

Using this feature, you can assign an AutoCorrect text to the Square root symbol (such as SQRT).

This way, whenever you type the text SQRT, Word will think that you actually wanted to type the square root symbol (√) and will convert it for you automatically.

This approach is particularly useful when you need to frequently insert the symbol into your work.

Without further ado, below are the steps you can use to assign AutoCorrect text to symbols.
  1. On the Insert tab, click the Symbol button and choose More Symbols…
  2. The Symbol dialog appears.
    1. Locate the Square root symbol, then click to select it.
    2. Click on the AutoCorrect… button to display the AutoCorrect dialog.
  3. In the AutoCorrect dialog box, enter the following:
    1. Replace: SQRT (or any text you want to assign to the symbol.
    2. With: √
    3. Click Add, then click OK.
  4. Word will automatically insert the Square root symbol into your document whenever you type SQRT.
Below are some few things to note though when you are using the AutoCorrect approach.
  1. AutoCorrect is case sensitive. Meaning if you type sqrt (in lowercase), Word will not convert it into the Square root symbol unless you type SQRT (in uppercase).
  2. If there is any text before or after the AutoCorrect text, Word will consider the AutoCorrect text as part of the text and hence will not convert. For example, XSQRT will not get converted, but X SQRT will get converted to X √.

Using Eq (Equation) field codes

Radical: \r(,)

Draws a radical or square root using one or two elements.

Example:

{ EQ \r(3,x) }

How To Automate Ms Word to Perform Mail Merge from Visual Basic

How To Automate Microsoft Word to Perform Mail Merge from Visual Basic

with addition my notes


Summary


This article demonstrates how to use Microsoft Word to create a mail-merged document by using Automation from Microsoft Visual Basic.


More Information

There are two ways to control an Automation server:  by using late binding or by using early binding.
  • With late binding, methods are not bound until runtime and the Automation server is declared as Object.
  • With early binding, your application knows at design-time the exact type of object it will be communicating with and can declare its objects as a specific type. This sample uses early binding, which is considered better in most cases because it affords greater performance and better type safety.

To early bind to an Automation server, you have to set a reference to that server's type library. In Visual Basic, this is done through the References dialog box. To open the References dialog box, click References on the Project menu. For this sample, you have to add a reference to the type library for Word before you can run the code.

Building the Automation Sample

  1. Start Visual Basic, and create a new Standard EXE project. Form1 is created by default.
  2. Add a CommandButton control to Form1.
  3. On the Project menu, click References to open the References dialog box.
  4. Select Microsoft Word 11.0 Object Library to create a reference to the Microsoft Office Word 2003 type library. For Word 2002, select Microsoft Word 10.0 Object Library. For Word 2000, select Microsoft Word 9.0 Object Library. For Word 97, select Microsoft Word 8.0 Object Library.
  5. Click OK to close the References dialog box.
  6. In the code window for Form1, add the following code:
    Option Explicit
    Dim wrdApp As Word.Application
    Dim wrdDoc As Word.Document
    
    Private Sub Command1_Click()
      Dim wrdSelection As Word.Selection
      Dim wrdMailMerge As Word.MailMerge
      Dim wrdMergeFields As Word.MailMergeFields
    
      Dim StrToAdd As String
      
    ' Create an instance of Word, and make it visible.
      Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
      wrdApp.Visible = True
      
    ' Add a new document.
    
      Set wrdDoc = wrdApp.Documents.Add

Easy Ways to Overline Text in Word

You shall already know the method to underline text in Microsoft Office Word. But addition to this, you may also have the demand to overline or overbar specified characters sometimes. For example, if you want to enter an average number in a mathematical document, a short line above a given variable is necessary.

In this post, you will get several simple methods based on Microsoft Word.
  1. Insert Shapes

The most direct way is to draw a line over the specified text.
  1. Click Insert – Shapes. Find the icon of straight line in Lines.
  2. Select it. Drag your cursor to draw a straight line over the text.
  3. Then you can choose the color and effect of the line you drew.
  4. The bright spot of this method is the high degree of freedom. You can draw any kind of line in anywhere you want.
  5. Finish.
  1. Borders

You can also regard the overline as a part of a border.
  1. First, select the text and find the icon of Borders in Home tab.
  2. Click the small triangle beside it to see the drop-down list, choose Top Border.
  3. Then a overline is added to the whole row.
  4. Adjusting the width of it requires you to use the horizontal Ruler. You can enable it by checking Ruler in View tab.
  5. Put your cursor at the row of the text you want to overline. Then drag the small triangle on the ruler to adjust the length of the line.
  6. Finish.
  1. Equation Editor

You can also use Equation Editor to insert overline to your text.
  1. Click Insert – Equations to enable the Equation Tools in Design, and a textbox will be added to your document.
  2. Click Accent in Design (Equation Tools) tab, select Bar in Accent or Overbar in Overbars and Underbars.
  3. Then the underline will be inserted in the equation textbox. You can click the dotted pane to input any text you want.
  1. Using a Field Code

  1. First, we’ll show you how to use a field code to apply overlining to text. Open an existing or new document in Word and place the cursor where you want to put the text with overlining. Press “Ctrl + F9” to insert field code brackets, which are highlighted in gray. The cursor is automatically placed in between the brackets.
  2. Enter the following text between the brackets.    EQ \x \to()
    • NOTE: There is a space between “EQ” and “\x” and between “\x” and “\to()”. “EQ” is the field code used to create an equation and the “\x” and “\to” are switches used to format the equation or text. There are other switches you can use in the EQ field code, including ones that apply bottom \bo, right \ri, left \le, and box borders to the equation or text.
  3. Put the cursor between the parentheses and enter the text you want to overline.
  4. To display this as text rather than a field code, right-click anywhere in the field code and select “Toggle Field Codes” from the popup menu.
  5. The text you entered into the field code displays with a line above it. When the field code displays as normal text, you can highlight it and apply various formatting to it, such as font, size, bold, color, etc.
    • NOTE: To display the field code again, simply right-click in the text and select “Toggle Field Codes” again. When you put the cursor in text generated from using a field code, the text is highlighted in gray, just like the field code.
  6. If you want the line to extend beyond either end of the text, add spaces when entering the text into the field code inside the parentheses. This is useful for creating lines with names under them for signing official documents.
    • NOTE: Field codes work in all versions of Word, for both Windows and Mac.
  7. Finish.

How to Type Accent Marks Over Letters in Microsoft Word

Insert Accented Letters with Word’s Insert Function

If you only need to insert accented characters occasionally, it’s easy enough to pop open Word’s Symbol window and hunt for the letter you need.

Switch over to the “Insert” tab, and then click the “Symbol” button.
The dropdown menu shows your most recently-used symbols. If the symbol you’re after is there, just click it. If not, click the “More Symbols” command, instead.
The Symbol window that opens displays a huge number of characters to choose from—3,633 to be exact. Word does help by letting you filter by font and subset, though.

Use the “Font” dropdown menu to choose the font you’re using (or, you can just select the “Normal Text” entry). The “Subset” dropdown lets you jump to particular subsets of characters. In fact, if you scroll through the available characters, you can watch the Subset value change. For now, though, go ahead and choose “Latin-1 Supplement” from the “Subset” dropdown. That’s where you’ll likely find the accented letter you’re after.

Click the character you’re looking for, and then click the “Insert” button to insert it into your document. Note while you’re here that there are all kinds of other useful symbols in this window. Just in the image below, you can see the symbols for copyright (©) and registered trademark (®).

Insert Accented Letters with Keyboard Shortcuts

For example, to get the á character, you’d press Ctrl+’ (apostrophe), release those keys, and then quickly press the A key. Note that if you want Á instead of á, you’d have to enable caps lock before using the shortcut key, since using the Shift key would change the shortcut.

There are too many to list in this article, but here are a few shortcut keys provided by Office Support to get you started.

Symbol Code
à, è, ì, ò, ù Ctrl+` (Accent Grave), the letter
À, È, Ì, Ò, Ù
á, é, í, ó, ú Ctrl+’ (Apostrophe), the letter
Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú
â, ê, î, ô, û Ctrl+Shift+^ (Caret), the letter
Â, Ê, Î, Ô, Û
ã, ñ, õ Ctrl+Shift+~ (Tilde), the letter
Ã, Ñ, Õ
ä, ë, ï, ö, ü Ctrl+Shift+: (Colon), the letter
Ä, Ë, Ï, Ö, Ü

Insert Accented Characters with ASCII Codes


And what use would we be if we didn’t show you the geekiest way of all? If you’re going to be using a lot of accented characters—especially the same characters over and over—it might be worth your time to learn a few ASCII codes.

The American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII), is an encoding system that provides a way to represent certain characters using the respective code. We won’t be going over the full list of ASCII codes, as there are hundreds of characters and it’s impossible to learn them all. Instead, we’ll go through the basics and give you a few short codes to quickly take care of those foreign words with diacritics.

To use this trick, you’ll need a number pad (either as part of your main keyboard or as an add-on). You’ll also need to make sure you’ve enabled NumLock by pressing the NumLock key at the top-left corner of your number pad. Most keyboards have an indicator light to let you know when NumLock is enabled.

To enter an ASCII code, all you have to do is hold down your Alt key while typing out a numeric code on your number pad. For example, the code for a lowercase letter “a” with a grave accent is 133. So, you’d hold down Alt, type 133, and then let go of the Alt key. As soon as you do, the character appears—voilà!

Obviously, it would be difficult to remember a ton of ASCII codes for different accented letters, but if you regularly use a few, it really simplifies the whole process. Here are a few to get you started:
Code Symbol Description
129 ü letter u with umlaut
130 é letter e with acute accent
131 â letter a with circumflex accent
132 ä letter a with umlaut
133 à letter a with grave accent
134 å letter a with a ring
136 ê letter e with circumflex accent
137 ë letter e with umlaut
138 è letter e with grave accent
139 ï letter i with umlaut
140 î letter i with circumflex accent
141 ì letter i with grave accent
142 Ä letter A with umlaut
143 Å letter A with a ring
144 É letter E with acute accent
147 ô letter o with circumflex accent
148 ö letter o with umlaut
149 ò letter o with grave accent
150 û letter u with circumflex accent
151 ù letter u with grave accent
152 ÿ letter y with diaeresis
153 Ö letter O with umlaut
154 Ü letter U with umlaut
160 á letter a with acute accent
161 í letter i with acute accent
162 ó letter o with acute accent
163 ú letter u with acute accent
164 ñ letter n with tilde

AutoCorrect Keyboard Characters to Special Characters

You can also use Word’s autocorrect feature to automatically insert accented characters when you type certain letter combinations. And, although this sounds like it would be the easiest method, it’s quirky and in practice, not as useful as it might sound.

Back at the Symbols window, select the character for which you want to set up an autocorrect function for. Click the “AutoCorrect” button at the bottom left.

In the “Replace” box, type the characters that you want to trigger the autocorrect replacement. When you’re done, click the “Add” button, and then the “OK” button.

In this case, we’re telling Word that when we type the letter “a” followed by the accent grave (`) and then a space, Word should automatically replace that with an “a” that has the accent grave above it.

When you type a word, you have to type the accented character first. In other words, if you want to type “Voilà,” you’d first need to type a+’ then go back and type the “Viol” behind it. Otherwise, you’ll end up with Viola’—because Word won’t trigger the autocorrect when the trigger letters are part of a larger word. And, as you can imagine, this makes it really annoying if you have multiple accented characters in a single word.

And really, you’re still doing almost as much typing as you would using the built in keyboard shortcuts Word provides.
