¼ ALT+0188
½ ALT+0189
¾ ALT+0190
º ALT+0186
™ ALT+0153

You can also copy and paste several different characters by using the Character Map that is built into Windows. Just go to

Start Menu----> Accessories-----> System Tools----> Character Map

You won't believe all the different things you can "type"!!!!
