Yves, thanks for the response. As you can probably see from the other
postings, I cannot find U+2011 in the symbols listing.
I am on 2003/XP does this affect the listing?

Strictly speaking, Ctrl+Shift+Hyphen defines an open xml noBreakHypen
element which only exists in Word. This is neither a non-breaking hyphen nor
a non-breaking minus sign. There does exist a real non-breaking hyphen
(U+2011) and a minus sign (U+2212).

You should try displaying the three symbols next to each other on a line in
Word to see the difference.

You use a Non-Breaking-Hyphen. Press Ctrl+Shft+Hyphen to create.
Hope this helps

I want to bind a minus sign to a number so that the entire construct
remains
on the same line and not split between two lines (e.g., -21% on same line
versus - on one line and 21% on next line).

Thanks,
