I have created a private character using 'Private Character Editor' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Character_Editor).
Unfortunately, the character i have created does not display in Visual Studio, instead i get a 'question mark inside a square' character. I can type the private character into notepad using Alt+57344, but that same key combination does not even register in Visual Studio. Interestingly, whilst notepad outputs the next private character if i type Alt+57345, Visual Studio output the same as Alt+1 ... awesome :)
How can i get the private character to display properly?
Update!
The private character displays happily in Word and Notepad, and also in a RichTextBox in my own application, but not in Excel (i just get a 'computer says no ding' when i try to use Alt+57344). I can however paste the character into Excel using Character Map.
Cheers.
