"Find" Wildcard for Symbol Arrows?

Framers,
I've inherited a series of documents that use the "arrowright" character in
the Symbol font to represent menu command sequences (such as File > Save).
These are usually accompanied by a leading and trailing space.
I'd like to replace these with a variable to include a non-breaking leading
space and to facilitate future updates--but cannot seem to figure out which
wildcard sequence would catch these characters.
So far, I've tried the following:
- pasting the character sequence into the "Find" dialog
(appears in the "Find" dialog as an AE ligature, but isn't found)
With "Use Wildcards" enabled:
- searched for hex code " \xae "
- searched for wildcard " [^a] " (any character except "a")
This catches all variables and single digits, but no symbol characters.
So far, no luck. Any ideas?
Roger
