Well bless me - so it does. The only way I know is to open a word document then click on symbol and insert. Then copy and paste it in here.

Surely there must be a quicker way!!!!!!!!

if it's a desktop with a number pad then make sure numlock is on and hold down alt and press the 3 on the number pad

on a laptop then try holding down fn and alt and pressing L

if it's a laptop without a number pad it can be a pain as they all work slightly differently.

you either have to turn on the virtual number pad so the L key becomes a 3 or find out what key will make the L produce a 3 when you hit it. then hold down that key and left ALT and press and release the L then the other 2 keys

awhh.. bless!

I think it depends on your pc.

on my lappy if I hold down the "alt" key, then press 3, then release the "alt" key, a heart pops up.

if it works, try it with different numbers. on my old desktop pc I had to input 3 digit numbers whilst holding down the "alt" key.

try again........ :o)

How big do you want the heart. If the same size as type go to INSERT then choose SYMBOLS choose ARIAL then Miscellaneous dingbats and the solid heart is there. If a large heart is wanted make sure the drawing toolbar is showing choose AUTOSHAPES then BASIC shapes
