I hope whoever answers your question,, Bob, can explain how to do it on a 
laptop with no numeric keypad, as well as with the numeric keypad for those 
who need that.  I have found this same problem in one book, and just 
replaced them one by one.  I hope there is an easier way.  (smile)

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] a K1000/word2000 question


Ok. I'm validating a Larry McMurtry book "Texas Village" or something like
that (memory gets bad).

It appears to be a really good scan. Only one problem.

All of the apostrophes turn out to be back quotes. Character 827. In
Kurzweil I tried to mass change them to ' but Kurzy just deleted them
altogether. I did a replace all left back quote to ' and poof away they
went.

I have both ms word 2000 and Kurzweil 1000v9.5. How can I change those pesky
quotes in either program?

Thanks.
Bob
