I can't seem to TYPE the 'clover' symbol on the apple key--HOW?

I'm on 10.3.9 using MS Word.
I've used the keyboard viewer, done a bunch of googles, and I can't seem to make it work! I've even just tried cut and pasting it from the web to no avail.

Somebody tell me the shortcut please!
cheers!

Hi Chris,

With MSWord, Font Wingdings/Z Key

PS You can put in the menu a keybord viewer via International preferences. Helpful.

FYI, Character Palette\Unicode/Miscellaneous Technical, you will find the symbol.

Hi Chris,

Just make a copy of this one:
⌘

Yes, I think you won't even find it in Character Palette (International > Input Menu), and there is no keyboard combination in OS X defaults.
The HTML code was
⌥
in case you need it somewhere.

Thanks Rush for your EDIT about Character Palette...
Oh, found it.

On Panther, Character Palette > View: Unicode > Unicode Blocks > Miscellaneous Technical; but I don't know if that'll work as well on a web page as ⌥ .
