Thank you for your suggestion! I recorded a macro and the bullet code is different than the one that was shown in the 'Insert > Symbol' menu. That was 'Chr(183)' and the new one is 'ChrW(61623)'.

It is working great now! Below you can see the recorded script.

Code:

Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting
With Selection.Find
    .Text = ChrW(61623)
    .Replacement.Text = "-"
    .Forward = True
    .Wrap = wdFindAsk
    .Format = False
    .MatchCase = False
    .MatchWholeWord = False
    .MatchAllWordForms = False
    .MatchSoundsLike = False
    .MatchWildcards = True
End With
Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
