You can simply use capital letters such as I, V, X, L, C, and M to make the various roman numerals. For example, VII for seven.

do as suggested above or..go on insert/symbol and you should find it there. On the one it doesn't have to look perfectly like a stick. It has to have lines like the capital letter.

There are two other places where you might need Roman numerals in Word.

Firstly, some people like to have some of their document page numbers in Roman numerals. This is usually when they have a preface or introduction to a long document (like a thesis). Here, you may have a Preface, Acknowledgements, Table of Contents etc numbered i,ii,iii,iv,v and so on, with the page numbering 1,2,3,4,5 starting with Chapter 1.

To do this you must first create a separate section or sections in your document to contain those parts you want numbered separately. To do this put in a section break at the end. How you do this depends on your version of Word - look for "create Section Break New Page" in your help screen.

Now go to "Page Number format" (again where you find it depends on which version of Word you use - check your help files) and you can choose how to format your page numbers, and this dropdown menu allows you to pick Roman numerals either in large letters I,II,III,IV,V or the lower case I mentioned above. In this context people usually use the smaller letters.

The other place where you can routinely use Roman numerals is in numbered lists or outlining. If you pick numbering format options and then chose "Customising" you will see that you can pick Roman numerals (again I think you can chose upper or lower case letters) at any numbering or outline level.
