I am not sure how I did it, but I accidentally overrode the "6" and "-" in my font file. I was able to fix it by bringing in the bitmaps and adding them back in as characters, correcting the code point value in the process.
However I cannot figure how to move them up in the list of characters. I would like the 6 to appear after the 5 and the "-" to appear where it is supposed to for sake of organization. Clicking and dragging does not work.
6 should be Glyph number 22 but now 7 has become glyph 22.

Create a new empty glyph after the 5, copy the 6 glyph, and use paste special to copy the glyph and its mappings to the new glyph. Repeat for the hyphen to position it in the right place. Then delete the two unmapped glyphs.

Thank you!!!
That was surprisingly easy. Saved me from having to start completely over on this font.

There is also an option on the Font menu to sort the font by Unicode code-point.
