Default Special Characters

I recently got a new PC and reloaded Office XP. When I open a document that
I had created in the past every place that I had quotes or apostrophes are
changed to weird characters. Any ideas what setting causes this?

Hello-

Does the doc perhaps use fonts that are not installed on the new system?

Regards |:)

It sounds like it was either typed using a font the new
system doesn't have, or the language is different on
the new machine.
