No I'm not kidding. Unless there's a third party application, the only way to insert emoticons is to use the select symbols list. To be honest, I don't use them personally, and I ask my friends not to, as it's too much hassle as you can see.

Does that mean you have to press the star to access the menu for each one because how else could you do it? Is there a list of these emotions to your knowledge? Thanks, I'll have a play and see what happens.

For example, a smiley would be typed as a colon, followed by a dash, followed by a closing parenthesis. Hope that helps.

I've been asked how to do this and I'm buggered if I can find anything on mine that does it. Do you need predictive text on to get it because I don't use that. By pressing the star key, it brings up a whole list of symbols you can insert into text like hyphens and other punctuation, but not smiley faces, sad faces and winks etc. TALKS does recognise them when they appear in text messages I receive, but I can't reproduce them myself, and a friend has asked me how to do it too. Thanks for any suggestions. Jackie ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
