If I click Find Next, it simply reports back it was not found.
The symbol appears as a simple bullet in the Word document, including when I
print it. However, when I copy and paste the symbol into the search field, it
appears as a double bullet seperated by space, like this:

If I try to delete the bullet manually, pressing the delete key once selects
the bullet, and pressing the delete key twice will then delete it. It
wouldn't seem to be a big deal, but I have over 2000 documents, with several
hundred bullets in each. The delete-delete method is killing me.

What happens, after pasting the symbol in the Find what: box, if you click on
Find Next? Does it take you to the next identical symbol? I've noticed when
I paste symbols from a WordPerfect font into the Find what: box, that they
don't always replicate what is on screen. But I can Find next and Replace
all.

Also, have you tried after pasting the symbol into the Find what: box to
replace it with something? If so, what happens?

Yes. In fact, when I highlight, copy and paste, the paste result actually
appears as two seperate bullets in the FIND field. If I highlight the bullet,
then open the FIND dialogue, it appears in the field as "(" open parentheses.

When converting documents from WordPerfect to MSWord, bullet characters are
carried over. These characters are not associated with a bullet style and I
need to delete them. These bullet characters seem to be symbols, but I can't
find and replace them. I have tried using the ^nnn and ^0nnn and ^unnn seach
codes, but I am having no luck.
