OK, you've convinced me that in my app I should allow any type of dash to stand in for a minus sign. It's not hard to do once you understand the need and in my case there is no requirement to use dashes for anything else. Thanks for the insight. Graham On 30 Jan 2014, at 08:36, Paul D.

Thanks Richmond, good observe as the Scots say (do you say it? RLS did.) In my case saving to .doc or any other format isn't on, because I can't predict what my users will do: if someone thinks a dash is a minus sign, then they will copy it regardless - I can't give them elaborate instructions
