How to turn off "smart quotes"
The '"Straight quotes" with "smart quotes"' checkbox under
Tools|AutoCorrect Options...|AutoFormat seems to have no impact on what appears when I press the quote key. No quote marks appear in the AutoCorrect list under Tools|AutoCorrect Options...|AutoCorrect That exhausts the advice that I have found in Help. I am using Office 2003 SP2 under Win XP Pro SP2.

How to turn off "smart quotes"
Thanks for the quick reply, but as stated in the original post, I already
tried that and it didn't work. Perhaps this is a bug is 2003 SP2?

How to turn off "smart quotes"
You mentioned changing it in one place. Did you change it in both places?

Good catch! I had never noticed that there was an option to autoformat after
the fact. Thanks, Jerry "garfield-n-odie [MVP]" wrote: You mentioned changing it in one place. Did you change it in both places? |
