Programming Forum and web based access to our favorite programming groups.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
