For example, 1D400 Alt+x inserts a math bold A (although you probably won't see this character unless you use the Code2001 font or some other font supporting Plane 1). This also works for Word 2002 and later.
I cannot get this to work with Word 2002 under Windows 2000. I have Code2001 installed. I have also tried to insert Greek alpha using 03B1 or 3B1, but with no success. Alt+x does nothing. I have looked at all of the Options settings, but I cannot find a relevant one. Please have you any idea how to make Alt+x work in Word 2002?
