Are you using Finale 2009? If that's the case, this is easy to do
with the Expression Tool:
Choose the Tempo Marks category and click on "Create Tempo Mark". In
the Expression Designer for tempo marks, you'll see "insert note" on
a drop-down menu. Just choose the dotted quarter from the menu, type
the equal sign and choose the quarter from the menu.

I want
to put a [dotted quarter note] = [quarter note] indication above

using the actual notes, obviously, not descriptive text as I did
here. Do I
have to find the symbols in a font and put them in a text box or is
there an
easier way?
