Default Word 2007 'Smart' quotation marks being dumb...help!

Dear all,

I am having problems in Word 2007 with 'smart' quotation marks. (The
correct terminology might be a problem for me, but here goes...).

When typing, I use both the single and double quotation marks (depending on
where I am submitting my manuscripts), but for some reason Word has started
to show the first/opening quotation marks like this: ,example1'
,,example2'' whereas I nedd them like they always used to be, like this:
'example1' "example2". (Note that although they are straight in this
posting, but in Word it does alter them to the 'curly' type, but with the
first at a subscript level).

I have the autocorrect option for smartquotes selected, and my keyboard is
set to the right language.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated...I'm sure it may be something very
simple, but I can't spot it!!

Many thanks in advance,

Tony.
