Default Double dash

I am getting a double symbol when I hit the dash.
How do I rerun to a single dash?

See if there is an AutoCorrect entry to replace a dash with whatever symbol you are seeing instead.

To display the list of AutoCorrect entries: Click the AutoCorrect Options button at File tab | Options | Proofing. In the dialog box, click the AutoCorrect tab.
