Hi Natalia

First check that the font that you are using for the textfield actually
have the mdash character, use the character map in windows  (the mdash
is html entity — or symbol - or Unicode \u2014 )

If the character is there, then use

c="a — b";
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

or

c="a - b";
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

or

c="a \u2014 b";
txt.html=true;
txt.htmlText=c;

hope it helps, let me know if not

thanks
Andres
