      Using an em-dash in a Project name causes an error on Export from the Issue Navigator when the filter uses the project name as a defining attribute

      (1) Create a project name that contains an em-dash
      (2) Filter on project = "Project – Name"
      (3) Select View> Excel (All Fields)

      We receive the attached error message.

      The work-around was to replace the em-dash (–) with the en-dash
