HI Jake and Mickey, 

Just did that in a book. It sure saves a lot of time. One of the ways that
Kurzweil really shines over using word.

Hi Mickey,
    Easy then. Just highlight one of the single quotes and copy it to your 
clipboard. Go to the top of the file. Press CTRL+H to open the Find/Replace 
dialogue. Then paste that single quote into the Find box, tab to the Replace

area and just type an apostrophy. Press ALT+A to Replace All.
    Your Rank Spelling should improve quite a bit! You can do the same thing

with 'closed quotes' which do appear different from the quote typed from the

keyboard. That should also improve Rank Spelling, but probably no where near

as much.

Jake
