Hi Lisette, Make sure you are in Coded view. Highlight the hard space code, and copy it (Ctrl + c) to the Clipboard. Now deselect the highlighted code (just cursor away from it) Go the Edit, Replace, and in the Search for box, Paste (Ctrl + v) the code. Tab to the Replace with box, and enter whatever you want to replace it with. Trust me - it works on my 10.4!
