You are probably using the greek letters from the Symbol font.
Unfortunately, Excel doesn't allow multiple fonts in the same cell. The
best workaround is to create a text box the size of the cell, because
text boxes allow multiple fonts. You can create a text box the exact
size of a cell by holding down the Alt key while you drag.
