Find and replace Em dash.
Yes you can. AFIR, in older versions of Word, the find/replace box could not
display characters beyond basic ascii, so Word provided search codes. For the em dash, type ^+ in the find what box. You can see more search codes by clicking more and the special in the find and replace dialog. In W2003 and 2007, you can use any of the usual methods to put characters into the regular (not wild card) find and replace boxes.

I've tried typing an em dash into the Find dialogue box but it won't accept it. -- Message posted via OfficeKB.com http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...ement/200904/1 |
