Using " "
Define "weird angle." What font are you using? Are you wanting straight
quotes instead of "smart quotes"? -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne:
Actually the file looks fine on screen, but upon printing it is not natural. Please print the attachment. Never having heard of the term "smart quotes" I looked it up and found that I am by default using them. They are however not working properly with Courier font. If I change my font they seem to work okay, therefore it must be the Courier font that is discombobulated. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... Define "weird angle." What font are you using?

The "typeset-quality" quotation marks in Courier are an abomination. The
whole point of Courier is to look like typewriting, and these spoil the effect. If you have a good reason for using Courier, then disable smart quotes for the duration (Tools | AutoCorrect Options | AutoFormat As You Type). -- Suzanne S.
