Default Neither an EM Dash or EN Dash, but I need to replace it with a Hyp

Fellow Forum Members,
Word 2003 automatically inserts a long slim dash that is neither an EM Dash,
EN Dash or hyphen. Nevertheless, I want to do a find a replace operation
that will replace all of these unwanted dashes with hyphens. The problem is
that when I copy this unwanted dash and paste it in the FIND field nothing
gets pasted. What is the best way to make WORD find these unwanted dashes and
then replace them with a hyphen? Any help will be aprreciated. Thanks.
