Non-breaking hyphens in Trados Studio 2021

Question

Dear community members, 
 
 I'm trying to resolve an issue related to non-breaking hyphens in Trados Studio. Please note I'm using Trados Studio 2021 SR2 - 16.2.12.9338 on Windows 10/11. 
 
 While I can insert n on-breaking hyphens in Studio Editor (e.g. in 2022-2023 or 19-22 f&eacute;vrier 2024), which display correctly in docx target files, it does not show up correctly in Studio Translation Memories. 
 
 Whenever a stored unit comes up in concordance searches (and when applying matches in target segments), it displays as "20222023" or "1922 f&eacute;vrier 2024" in Studio. 
 
 Any idea or suggestion to make sure non-breaking hyphens are stored correctly in TM and show up as such in Studio? 
 
 Thanks your help

 ok, so far it makes sense to me. 
 Are you sure that the non-breaking hyphen goes correctly to the final generated DOCX document? Could youi please test it for this particular segment?
