Yes, I did that in my first reply to you. It's above: what looks like text is actually a screen shot from a text Word document beginning with the words "Using the XP version" and then the weird character is in parentheses. PS: I can't find the weird character in the Unicode chart, but in HTML it is created with $#9015;

This is a bit of a mystery... :-(

If you provide an example document in Word format, I can copy and paste the character myself. I can't do that from a picture.
