MS Word technical enquiry

| Does anyone know how to make the Search and Replace function in Word
differentiate between the ordinary space character (symbolised by a
black dot in a Word document) and the space symbol that ensures the
characters on either side of it are not separated at the end of a line
(symbolised by ° between the characters)? I have 1,000 pages of
figures to check and without this function I am doomed.
Thanks for any clues,
Tim

| OK, I got the answer. Ctrl-Shift-Space creates the ° symbol and Search
and Replace recognises it.
