I have a bunch of old RTF files which I am gradually converting to epub,

I do most of the pre-formatting of the RTF's in Word 2010 with a whole bunch of macros and a few other manipulations by hand, I am generally very happy with my result when I finally use Calibre to convert to epub and mobi.

However, there is one symbol which is bugging me big time it is ¬

Word simply does not see it in the find and replace. I can't find anything sensible about this symbol on the web. Currently I use Notepad to find and replace it. But anyone have an idea how to get MS Word to recognise and remove it?
