Hi,

When interrupting speech in a story, think dramatic pause, it seems you are NOT supposed to leave a space between the previous word and a dash, en, em, or long. I used the interpreted colon (:) method for my pause and did leave a space. Now I have to correct all that. I was hoping there was a way to use find & replace.


Google told me to try turning off auto replace in Tools -> Auto correct -> options. Tried that. Doesn't seem to have worked. I still see the long dash in the text and find says can't find search key when I give it " :-" sans quotes. Tried turning on Regular expressions and still no search key found.


IsĀ  there any way to automate fixing this or do I have to slog through to whole story by hand? Thanks.
