I know the symbol is available if I pick it up manually, but using numbers the best I am seeing is the no-such-symbol-rectangle.

Nothing is wrong there. As Joe stated, those characters don't exist in the font. In addition, we only support characters up to FFFF and nothing higher. In addition, even if those characters were there they would not be very legible at all due to the high information density and lower resolution screen.

You will need to use two separate characters as joe stated. CHAR({65,9824}) for example...

If the character is not available, fair enough - Unicode has so many!

But when I do shift/char I can see (after scrolling down), select and print a domino - it's just when entering the hex number I'm having a difficulty.
Perhaps the shift/char table has something that looks like a domino but at a different number?
