Default Hyphens and En Dash

Use Ctrl + minus on the numeric keypad instead. It's one fewer keystrokes.

I'm using Word 2003 Windows XP
I cannot get two hyphens typed together to become an en dash.
I've gone into Tools - Auto Correct Options and under Autoformat and
Aoutformat as you type have checked the box for changing hyphens to
an en dash.

Any suggestions? Is there something else that needs to be checked?
