It gets even weirder!

The Find/Change dialog box on the Glyph tag tells me the character has the unicode value of 0020 and, when I look that up on a unicode table, it is simply a space. To check this, I selected an “ordinary” space in the text and did the same right-click, Load in Find, routine and it, too, gave a unicode value of 0020.

Yet the characters that are intriguing me, as seen in my second screen shot above (message 3), has a peculiar graphic representation in the story editor whereas an “ordinary” space appears simply as one single blue dot.

I do love a good mystery but this one seems to have a desperate need for Columbo or (for British readers) Miss Marple or Poirot!
