Hi!,

  I was wondering whether somebody might be able to help me out with the
generated of ticks and crosses that I would like to use within a table.  I have
searched CTAN and could only find symbols which related to maths, physics and
the other sciences.  I know that I have seen the ticks and crosses generated
before, but I just can't remember how it is done.

  I know that a \surd looks very close to a "tick" but I was wondering whether
anybody knew of a package which could generate a proper tick and a proper cross.

Thanks in advance for any pointers received.

See ya

Dean Thompson
