I'm pretty sure you can only use one font for the whole graph, so it would 
be tough to use wingding characters unless you had no other text in the 
graph (unlikely).  However, there are some font-editing programs out there 
that may let you change some characters in an existing font.  I haven't gone 
down this road yet, but it may be possible to add your favorite wingdings 
into some other font to replace characters that are seldom used with 
something you want.
