Depends, too, on what you're trying to replace. Sometimes, for example, an
en dash or an em dash is a different character when you insert it from the
keyboard and when you insert it from the symbols db. Try copying the string
that you want to find and pasting it into the db. Sometimes that works.

HTH!
