For some reason I am unable to replace the Degree symbol with the field calculator.  I'm guessing it has something to do with the formatting of the degree symbol.

This does not work

!Mapping_Angle!.replace("°", "-")


UPDATE:  Problem solved, found an easy workaround.  Since this did not work, I just used Excel to find and replace all degree signs with a dash.  It's not so picky.

I was going to suggest the 'Find & Replace' tool in the table

You know what, that would have been easier!  I do not know why I did not just do that.  Sometimes I suppose I get too caught up in Python and forget about the basics.
