I found this: http://www.lookuptables.com/

But it is not of any help to me. I am trying to create a "does not equal" sign. (The = with a / through it.) Anybody know the code for this?

Like that? I got it out the Character Map included in Windows.

MarkYou mean like this: ≠ ? It's 2260 in Unicode, not available in ASCII or HTML. Note that not all fonts will have it.

If you're using Windows, do Start->Programs->Accessories->System Tools->Character Map
Gives you a table of the characters available in the selected font.

It might be under Windows>Program Files>Accessories. Mine isn't under System Tools, anyway. ;)

≠ Yup, there he sits in Character Map! Thanks!!!

The correct code for "does not equal" is:

ASCII (decimal) 97 105 110 39 116

Glad to help. Any time. Really.

That's what that gave me. Are you using the Alt key?

Sorry, it's a string of five characters.
ALT-97, ALT-110, etc

Well Mark,
Speaking only for myself here, you may be correct,
But now I’m feeling I is not equal to the task, as well!
