Autocorrect for a specific combination of symbols?

Sometimes when writing dialogue I'll end a sentence with a -" to signify the speaker has been interrupted e.g.

> "Let me tell you about my-"
> "I don't care."

In Word that -" always creates the open speech mark when it should be the close speech mark.

Is there a way to set that as an autocorrect when I use that combination, or any other way I can stop Word making that an open mark? I've tried copy and pasting the 'error' and what should be the correct combination under AutoCorrect Options but it's not doing it.
