        Now I am amazed, flummoxed, startled, that this
        symbol can be entered and appear correctly.
        In a BlackBox document it also appears correctly.
        
        BUT HOW DO I TYPE IT!!!??
        
        
        Any suggestions for how I can generate these Greek symbols?

Hi Doug,

To display a sigma use:
        
  wr.WriteChar(03C3X);

One way to find the codes for the different characters for the font that you
are using is to use the Windows 'Character Map' applet. On my XP system this
is accessible from:

  Windows Start > Accessories > System Tools Character Map

Some extended characters can be entered using ALT+xxxx where xxxx is the
4-digit code (use the numeric keypad to enter it while you hold down the ALT
key). The applet will display these codes, when available, at the bottom of
the screen. Other characters can be copied / pasted from the applet.

Regards,
Chris
