Default ~ I've beaten Google...

..and all the other search engines I'm having trouble with Excel not recognising the Tilde character ~ so wanted to check if there is anything about it online.

If you search for ~ there are no results at all Bizarrely, if you search for Tilde you will find plenty of resuts that include the character so why is it not found?
