Just in case, ^- is shift 6 and then a hypen. Vivian
Hi Lori; Search for optional hypens in word ^- then do a replace with nothing. Vivian At 03:11 PM 4/12/2012 -0700, you wrote:As I recall, they ar added by the scanning program. They are just in the middle of words and the speech says "optional hyphen". I deleted a lot of emails because I thought a way to remove them all at once was in the manual, but I can't find it. I will just remove them one by one although it will certainly slow down my progress with the book.Lori
