Replace hyphen with non-breaking hyphen

[clhare]

I need to replace all hyphens in a presentation with a non-breaking hyphen.

I know that I can manually insert a non-breaking hyphen by using Alt+0173, but I can't figure out how to do that in a search and replace macro.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You shouldn't need a macro just the standard replace item. Copy and paste a non breaking hyphen into the replace with box.

Yeah... it won't look like anything is pasted in the REPLACE area, but try it. It actually works.

Thanks Tom, I should have mentioned that

You can directly type the Alt+0173 (using the NumPad) in the "Replace With:" box, so you don't need to copy one

That true. I'm using a laptop with no numeric pad so it's more tricky to use Num Lock to add it so I use insert symbol and copy / paste
