Question
Is there an alt code for peace sign? Please, help! This is a great site btw, I love it!

There's no alt code for the peace sign. And remember that all alt codes are listed at alt-codes.org. So if you don't see some symbol here, it just means that there's no alt code for it.

It's a differently encoded character and isn't part of alt codes. So you can only type it in MS Word.
