    Rho, 17th letter of Greek alphabet. In Unicode, the upper and lower case are encoded at U+03A1 and U+03C1 respectively. In MS Word symbol inserter, choose Basic Greek. Works for me in Arial
    and Times New Roman.

      Greek Rho Symbol:
      ϱ

      there seem to be three (at least) characters- a small letter Rho, a capital letter rho, and the symbol. It is the symbol you are trying to create.

      according to character map, it's U+03F1. You can find it by using character map, I was able to use the "search" feature to search for "Rho"- the character in question was one of the results.

      I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

        thanks everyone
        but i have problem yet. I search for "Rho", and the result is "P" and "Rho", in Greek.
        also, no font can change the shape of this symbol, to that symbol in my first post.

        please check photos in my second post. there is an equation that containing both "Rho" and the symbol.
        the symbol is look like "Rho" but it isn't.

        They are both rho, just different fonts.
