[bksvol-discuss] Re: Looking for some symbol help with K1000

Thank you, Mary. I didn't see your message on the K1000 list, so am glad you 
sent it both places. No. i wish to replace the long dash with two hyphens. I 
shall try what you suggest, and see how it works.

  Hi Shannon,  

  I answered this question for you on the k1000 e-mail list, because I saw that 
message of yours first.  In case you don't get that one for some reason, or in 
case anyone else wants the same information, here's the text of that message.

  Happy scanning and proofing!

  The symbol for a tab is \t.

  Do you really want to get rid of long dashes, since they represent a pause in 
the writing,  or do you want to replace them with two hyphens? In either case, 
if you turn the numeric keypad back to a number pad,hold down the alt key, and 
press 0151 on the numeric keypad, then hit enter.  This will create a long dash 
in your document, which you can then copy to the clipboard and paste into the 
find box of the find and replace dialogue.

  You might be able to create that symbol directly in the find box by typing 
the character string, but as I don't get rid of long dashes, but convert them 
to two hyphens, I've never tried that.

  Hope that helps.

  Mayrie

  Hello.

  For some strange reason, my version of microsoft word has totally crapped out 
on me. So, I'm needing to make some corrections using K1000. Can someone tell 
me what the symbols are for Mdashes and tab symbols? I would greatly appreciate 
it.
