Do you? Okay, if that's how you see it. ;-) My comment about Word wasn't in relation to this particular search-and-replace, but that I think it's a pretty horrid application overall. It's not my choice of word processor by a long chalk.

Of course. Not sure why you seem to be lecturing me. My comment was that it's not imo an acceptable situation when even professional publishers don't bother making the effort to clean up the bits a quick run through Word and then Calibre can't get right automatically. But I have so many commercial ebooks that seem not to have even been spelling-checked, so it's not surprising they haven't been proofread for punctuation or formatting. Dismaying and arguably unacceptable, but not surprising.
