To add a Tick symbol in MS Office Excel, Word or PowerPoint , you need to go to INSERT > SYMBOL from the toolbar and select the Font Wingdings, in the character code box Enter number 252

Here you will get both the simple Tick and a Ticked box symbol.
Cross Symbol and Crossed box symbol are also present there and can by inserted if desired
Here is how they look like

    Great tip. But what about Office 2010? I’ve been using this technique for years but just been upgraded to 2010 and MS have kindly removed Wingdings from the font list. Is there somewhere I can go to download this?
