Margaret, They don't work in Legacy 8 & 9 in most places. It has nothing to do with how you enter them. They just don't work. There's a bug report on this and I've just added another note.

Jennifer, It not render for me in v 7.5. Have you tried copying this character — into the search filter? I have versions 8 and 9, but am unable to quickly test for you. :) Margaret On 19 June 2017 at 14:08, Jennifer Crockett <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Yes, Margaret, mine are from the same place. When I was using v 7.5 the Emdash was rendered properly, but in v 9 (I skipped v 8) the Emdash is rendered as ’97 and I can’t find instances where there is no space between characters.

Where I have entered an Emdash without a space before or after, I get for example "BEHM. '97 Relatives and Friends" , I don't know how to search for these in Legacy. If it is not possible is there another way outside Legacy to search?
