At least in OOo 1.1.4, you can get longer hyphens as well (and I can't
see why this would have changed in later versions).
The problem is that the standard keyboards do not include them. So you
have to insert them via the Insert Special Character menu, or use the
Unicode numbers: type Alt + 0150
This large hyphen is called a dash.
