In MSWord bring up the insert menu by doing the following:
1. Within a file press the alt key and navigate to insert.
2. Navigate to Symbol and press enter and a dialog box will appear listing all 
the symbols.
3. If you have eloquence, and are running JFW, eloquence will pronounce 
everything correctly whereas with the neospeech will not, don't know about the 
real speak solo ones, but anyway, once the dialog opens, you'll find yourself 
automatically in an edit field so tab once and you'll see a list so then you'll 
have to use your left and right arrow keys in conjunction with the control key 
to go forward and backward from symbol to symbol.
4. Once you've put your cursor on a chosen symbol, tab until you hear insert 
button or alternatively you can press Alt+I to insert the chosen symbol, so 
there you have it.
Hope This Helps all of you.

"If you go without playing the trumpet for one day, no one knows, two days, 
only you know, and more than three days without practicing, girl you better 
look out, because everyone will know!"
Today, I find myself constantly saying those words, just to get myself going, 
to not give up, and it works. Since I learned to play the trumpet at the tender 
age of 10, I have spent so much passion and much diligence with that instrument 
that I will not give up on it. Sometimes my instrument puts me into awkward 
situations where I feel like they won't ever end, but the trumpet gives me a 
lot of hope with the majestic, crystal-clear sound it brings to my ears.
