Curly quotes
I cannot get curly quotes in word 2003. I know how to use autoformat, etc. to
change this function, but it doesn't word in word 2003. It works fine when I use word in a computer at a different location that has a newer version of word. |

Curly quotes
Click Tools | AutoCorrect Options. On the AutoFormat As You Type tab, make sure
"Straight quotes with smart quotes" is selected. Click OK. Note that in order to get the correct smart quotes you must have the appropriate language applied to text. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "Repunzel" wrote in message ...

of the cheap fonts on those "1000 fonts for $9.95!" disks don't have them. On May 18, 1:42*pm, "Stefan Blom" wrote: Click Tools | AutoCorrect Options.

Curly quotes
Staples we have plenty of. With their high prices. Office Depot seems
to be in "complementary distribution," as linguists say, with Office Max -- you don't find both stores in the same area. OD presumably went the way of a lot of stores across the river in Manhattan: the landlord raises the rent, the store has to leave, the store has been empty for a year. And since this was a big retail location, it means almost the entire building is empty -- the second and third floors are given over to medical offices, but there is/was a Toys R Us competitor on the lower level. Don't know if it's survived. (West 8th St., one of the main shopping streets in Greenwich Village, is now empty storefront after empty storefront. TLA Video was one of the casualties. Coliseum Books, the last big independent bookstore in Manhattan, got priced out of _two_ locations in five years.) On May 18, 11:31*pm, "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Sorry you lost your OD.

Curly quotes
We have Office Depots spotted all over the landscape here, and one Office
Max in Mobile. Closures are a big problem here, too. Developers keep building new shopping centers anyway, and what happens is that (a) stores move from the relatively new shopping center to the slightly newer one, leaving an empty storefront in the older one, and (b) companies that had signed on to be located in the newer one go bust, leaving holes there as well. A neighboring city offered ridiculous development incentives to a developer building a shopping center anchored by a Bass Pro Shop; Bass Pro did at least come through, with a huge store and apparently a lot of traffic, but one of the other big draws was supposed to be a Circuit City, and they went out of business AFTER putting up their sign but before actually moving in. I have no idea how many other of the promised stores have actually materialized, as I've not yet made it to that center. -- Suzanne S.
