Hi Sue,
 
I just a minute ago sent a reply to your original question.  Hope you get
the answer!  Sorry I wasn't here to answer more quickly.

I repeat, Mayrie.  Wouldn't that fix remove all hyphens, such as in Cindy's
example of mother-in-law?

Hi Lori,
 
Thanks for giving me another thing to add to the manual!
 
To remove optional hyphens, I think that you do this:
Open find and replace dialogue by pressing control+h
In the find box type ^-
In the replace box type nothing
Tab to "okay" and press enter.
 
I think that's what Jamie taught me to do.
 
Hope I've remembered correctly.
 
Happy proofreading, and I hope you enjoy your new computer!
 
Mayrie

Hi, Everyone,
 
I am proofreading a book that is loaded with optional hyphens.  I believe
that we are not required to remove them, but I would like to do so, but
can't find instructions for doing so in the manual.
Can anyone tell me the process for removing these hyphens?
 
I'm going to be getting a new computer in several weeks but found this
fairly short book I can complete proofreading before then, so hope I can
remove these hyphens.
