Inserting Checkmark Symbol

I am using Excel Online and converting documents from Numbers to excel format. Numbers allowed you to create a checkbox column in their spreadsheets while Excel does not.

As a workaround, I am trying to insert a checkmark symbol into the Excel Online document but I'm unable to. I can insert a regular checkbox, but not a checkmark. I inserted the symbol into my Excel program just fine, but if I copy and paste to Excel Online, it's garbage.

Is there no workaround to get a checkmark in an Excel Online document?

Thanks

Explanation / Answer

My preferred method involves setting the cells to a WingDing font and using a custom number format (Ctrl+1, Number, Custom, Type:) of [color10]
