Export to GEDCOM. Then use your word processor (or a text editor) to do a
global search and replace for the offending characters.

Subject: [LegacyUG] unwanted character changes
> I just ran across something new and rather odd. I use the old fashion
> notation mark - alt 0167 - in my event comments. While adding some
> information to an event, I notice that this had been replaced by the
> unattributed accent - alt 0180. I did a search of all events containing
> comments and every one has all been changed. Other alternate characters
> pound sign, etc, are fine. I have not changed my font settings or anything
> else. Since it appears that this can not be changed using search and
> replace, I am in for a whacking big piece of work putting them right. And
> who knows if they won't change once again? What would cause this to
happen?
> I though Legacy had full support for alternate characters.
