How do I assign a different style character to a key on my keyboar
I work in some older Word documents that often have a quotation mark that is
straight up and down like this ". However, when I am actually typing in the document now and hit the shift quotation key, I get curved quotation marks like these . How do I reassign the type of quotation mark I want to appear when using that key? Someone did this for me before and I have forgotten the steps. Thanks! Val |

Check under Tools, Auto Correct, Auto Format as you type - there might be a
tick in "straight quotes with smart quotes" - untick this option and click on OK.
