Hi ddbb12,
You can double click on the X-axis Title and go the the in-place editing mode. Press 'Ctrl' and 'M' key to open the Symbol Map Dialog. Select "Tahoma" from the FOnt drop down list box. Then, you can select the Angstrom's symbol and insert into X-axis Title now. Hope it's useful.
Thanks, Sammi |

Thank you very much,sammi.song! but I still have some problem. 1.what's meaning of "in-place editing mode"? Does it means the dialog titled "Text Control"? 2.I can't open Symbol Map Dialog by press "Ctrl+M" at the same time. I didn't know why. By the way , the version I used is 6.0. Thanks for your kindness to me. I hope I can got more helps in here.
Thanks, ddbb12 |

Hi ddbb12,
I am sorry. The Symbol Map Dialog is a feature that is equiped in 7.0 version, so you can't find it in 6.0. But I know another easy way to do that job, you can follw my steps in your 6.0: 1.Open MS-Word, and new a blank Document. 2.Select "Insert: Symbol..." menu to open the 'Symbol' Dialog. 3.On Symbols tab, pick out "Tahoma" from the Font drop-down list box. 4.Select the Angstrom's symbol and insert into word. Copy it. 5.Back to Origin. Double click the X-axis Title on graph. The "Text Control" dailog should be opened. 6.Put your cursor at the proper place, and do paste. 7.Click OK button to close "Text Control" dailog. so you can paste this symbol into X-axis Title now.
Thanks, Sammi

OK, I have add your MSN now. And you can directly go to Origin online Chat room for help.
The problem you met might due to the unicode character setting in windows. Similar to http://www.originlab.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2875
Thanks, Sammi |
