Default Looking for missing symbol

To: Dave,

The Clock at nine oclock symbol is part of the Wingdings character set with
an ASCII value of 191 (which is an upside down question mark in normal text).
The bigger question, is how does it come to appear in your text when you
copy/paste?

Occasionally, when I copy/paste some text, the 'Enter' character takes the
form of a symbol like the hands of a clock at 9:00 PM, with the end of the
hour hand taking the form of a small arrow.

I'd like to be able to Find/Replace these characters, except I can't find
out what the symbol is, and I don't see how to get it into the Find window.

Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thx
Dave
