Default Replace straight quotes with curly quotes

Yes, of course. Though AutoFormat will take care of those as well (not
always correctly, of course, but neither will Replace).

Also search for ' and replace with '.

The first line of attack should be AutoFormat, which will do this easily.
Alternatively, if you have the appropriate AutoFormat As You Type option
enabled, you can search for " and replace with ", and Word will do the
conversion.

Is there any way to replace straight quotes with curly quotes throughout
a
document?


Someone has sent me a document that has a lot of straight quotes. I
could
replace them one by one, but I wonder if there's an easier way.


I'm using Word 2003.


Thanks.-
