Actually, I think it turns into an en-dash, and I think the original
question was about an em-space (something I've never used!).

So - a philosophical question - when *do* you use en and em-spaces?

Here's what I do. Type:

 this - is an em.

the dash turns into Word's em dash when you press space after is.

Select the em dash only.

Alt+F11

Ctrl+G

? ascw(selection.range.text)

Can you point me to any doco on that? All
my usual suspects are drawing a blank here.
