OK, I'm ready for the flaming, because this is a real basic question, but I can't find the answer any where in the manual or forums, and I've tried everything I know.
when labeling components or laying down text I need to use the ohm symbol (Ω). It seems like a pretty basic thing so I've gotta believe it's me and not the program, but I cannot find a way to type it in or even cut and paste from another program.
Am I that stupid?...apparently, yes

Re: Labeling
Actually in all CAD programs it is common practise to use "R" instead of the ohm symbol Ω.
A few examples: 10kR, 3k3R or 3.3kR, 1kR, 180R, 10R etc. Sometimes people leave out the R entirely as it is well known that it is a resistor based on the symbol used.

Re: Labeling
Unfortunately, the Greek Omega symbol is not part of the standard 255 character ASCII map.
Re: Labeling
Our last schematic program had this and consistency would have been nice. Maybe add in new version?
