Hi Ann,

Okay, here's the keyboard version of G. Cindy's instructions. Cindy Lou's weren't quite right. It isn't the dash, but the em dash that you want to replace, right?

Control-h to open find and replace
In the find field type caret plus which is shift number 6 followed immediately by the shifted equals sign
In the replace box type two dashes with no space between.
Tab to "replace all" and hit enter.
Save your changes.

Peace,
Mayrie

Hi all,

No, no, worry not, I'm not going to ask the dreaded question, what are m-dashes and why do I need them? No, I just want to replace them with two dashes so that the braille copy will be good. Can somebody give me specific instructions on how to do this in Word?
