Hi Patrick,
Tah mate. Really appreciate that info. I will try that. I'm guessing you
are right. I have probably got that setting on hex. It would be nice if
they did have an option to have those characters replaced with spaces
though. Again mate, thanks a bunch for your help.

Hmm, should have doublechecked my info & checked it again. ...
Options for the Word Importer "Unknown Characters" setting are: Mark With
Asterisk (*), Ignore, & Output Hex Value. So if you have it currently as
Hex Value, try changing to asterisk.

Gidday David,
Your problem sounds like the return of the Unicode Code Character Wars that
some of us had a few months ago.
Assuming you're bringing the document in from MS Word, try the following:
Before importing the document go to Global Menu, Word Importer. In the
dialog box set it to replace unknown characters with space (or other symbol
if you prefer). Then import the document & the strange unsearchable symbols
should be gone.
