George, the simple answer is :
 
1. Under the  INSERT menu of W4W 2.0, select SYMBOL
2. The window that opens asks "Symbols from..." and shows you
   an ASCII code chart. You can select any font and see its code chart.
3. Select Normal Text. You will see every character you asked for in your
   post above. (Hold the mouse button down to see the character better).
4. Click OK to insert the character in your doc. You can copy/paste later if
   you don't want to select it each time.

For other symbols, try other fonts (including Symbols) if you don't find what
you are looking for. Wingdings are worth a look.

One more point. If your printer is properly supported by Win 3.1 (you are using
3.1 aren't you?) then by sticking to TRUETYPE fonts ONLY, your old printer
will be given a new lease of life. Better still, buy yourself the cheapest
secondhand HP-laserjet compatible (e.g. Toshiba PageLaser6) and get better
results than with a new postscript laser (if you use True Type only). Symbols
will be scalable to any point size, so will your text. So will the fantastic
Wingdings characters & symbols.... and you wife will love you even more  ;-)
