How to search/replace symbol characters

M

Hi,
how can I search for characters from symbol fonts (and ultimately relace
them)?

For example, I have an alpha in my document, which is simply an "a" from the
symbol font (and not, e.g., the corresponding unicode character from Times
New Roman). How can I find this? Searching for "a" in symbol font does not
seem to work, nor does unicode search.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

P.S. I'm using Word 2000, but I trust the situation is similar in other
versions as well...

Thanks for the heads up Michael. As is evident, I'm still learning all the
time. Suzanne is nothing short of a genius!

Quite a bit short, really. But if you hang around here long enough you're
bound to absorb a few things.
