IF (<<< Note BIG If) they're the same character that FM uses, you
should be able to find them by typing a backslash \ before the
dash/hyphen character in the Find box: \-
I usually find them by selecting one and copying it to the clipboard
and then using the "Text ... on clipboad" Find option. Not sure why it
isn't working for you... You're doing a Copy command after selecting
it, right?
