The keyboard shortcut for the degree symbol in Windows is alt+248. So press and hold the alt key, then type 248 on the numerical keypad, not the top row of numbers, then when you release the alt key you will have the ° symbol. Good eh?

For those on laptops and not a seperate numberpad you will often have to press alt function ket and if you look at the right side of the keyboard you will see teh number pad in typically blue keys:)
