WPF: How add check mark to the textblock?

Question

I am wondering if anyone knows the tag for check mark symbol. I need to have it in a texblock. I looked online for any clue and did not find anything that will work with XAML. Thank you in advance.

just refer this document by Josh smith about Differences between Label and TextBlock

I think you can do by using Label

<Label>   
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"> 
<Path 
                                Width="11" Height="11" 

                                SnapsToDevicePixels="False" 
                                Stroke="red"
                                StrokeThickness="2"
                                Data="M 2,4 C 2,4 3,5 5,13 C 5,13 5,3 12,0" />
                                <TextBlock Margin="5,0,0,0">Successfully Completed!</TextBlock>
                                </StackPanel>
                                </Label>
</StackPanel>

You can use the SQUARE ROOT character in either in XAML or code-behind to achieve a check mark symbol:

XAML:

<StackPanel>
    <TextBlock Text="√"/>
    <TextBox Text="√"/>
    <Label Content="√"/>
</StackPanel>

Code-behind:

txtBoxName.Text = "\x221A";
