Tim (and Brian),

Thank you for the information.

I had not realised the extent of WP's capabilities in this area. But DataPerfect seems to be consistent in producing the equivalent of Home and "-" in WP.

Now I know, it becomes easy to work around.

Try pressing Home and then - in WP. As you'll see in Reveal Codes, this
produces a '-' character rather than a [Hyphen] code.

Subject: [Dataperf] What character is the "-" in DataPerfect?


When I enter data such as "sub-licensee" and then print out a report which
contains the "-" I cannot relate the "-" to any character in the
WordPerfect character sets. Entering "-" in WordPerfect 5.1 or 6.2
produces a hyphen (looking at reveal codes) (even if entered in as
Alt-45).

Doing a search for a word which contains the "-" which has been entered in
DataPerfect means that the search will fail (unless I copy the "-"
character in DataPerfect into the search).

But I would like to know what the code number so that I can enter it in
directly in WordPerfect.

I would be grateful for help with this.
