That substitution is typical of a document that was created in, or partially
copied from, WordPerfect. See

You may have better luck finding an apostrophe formatted with WP Typographic
Symbol font and replacing it with an apostrophe formatted with Times New
Roman (or whatever your base font is).

Sorry. Lemme clarify. I am using Office Word 2003. When I created
the document, all was well. Then something happened which replaced
all apostrophe's with =. So the word isn't appears as isn=t. I've
tried a straight-forward Find & Replace but it says no instances can
be found. It just doesn't recognize the equal signs.

Couple of questions. What version of WordT are you using?
Are you saying that your apostrophe (') are automatically being
replaced with = symbols? Or do you WANT to find all ' and replace
them with "=" symbols? Which? Find and Replace should work straight
forward on find ' then replace with =

In my doc, I have multiple instances of an apostrophe (') being
replaced by an equals sign (=). I can't get Find & Replace to
correct this. Suggestions? Thanks!
