Insert a check mark symbol in Word

You can easily insert a check mark symbol in your Word documents and Excel workbooks. The Wingdings® font that most Microsoft Windows® users have installed enables you to choose between several symbols that can be used as a check mark. The most common symbols include:

   

Insert a symbol by using the Symbol command

1. On the Insert tab, in the Symbols group, click Symbol.
2. In the Symbol dialog box, on the Symbols tab, in the Font box, click Wingdings.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the list, where you will find several common check mark symbols. Double-click the symbol that you want.

Insert a symbol by using its character code

You can also use the character code of the symbol as a keyboard shortcut. For example, to insert the check mark symbol, change the font to Wingdings, and then press and hold ALT while typing 0252 on the numeric keypad.
