nonbreaking hyphen and space
Subject: nonbreaking hyphen and space

I have Word 2003 and for some reason, I can't figure out how to insert a nonbreaking hyphen and space at the end of a line.  When I try ctrl + shift + hyphen, I get a dash.  When I try ctrl + shift + space, I get the degree symbol.  Anybody have any ideas how I can change this?
