Hello everyone



I have an MS Word file with a mystery character in it. I want to know how to find/replace this character (i.e. how to type it in the find/replace dialog).

When I enable viewing of non-printing characters, I see it as a little box. I managed to capture the character to a plaintext file (in the attachment between the two brackets).

When I open that in a hex editor, I'm surprised to see that the mystery character is the same as a UTF8 BOM, namely EF BB BF.

Can anyone please tell me (a) how to type this character in MS Word and (b) how to type it in the find/replace dialog?

Thanks
Samuel
