Hi Vince. Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, it didn't work. It all went well until I got to finding the tick or square root. It isn't there. Any other advice would be much appreciated.

If so, the following may work, but I've never used 2010, so pardon me if it doesn't. Alt plus I for Insert, S for Symbol, then find a drop-down box called Subset and pick Mathematical Operators. Then use your arrow keys to find the tick symbol, which may be called square root. Once you've inserted one into your document, you can copy it, ready to paste it elsewhere. This is based on Word 2007, so if it's what you want, hope it works!
