Hi Shannon, when this happens it's annoying to everyone. <smile> What you should do to correct it is first see if quotation marks are being represented with these too or just apostrophes. If it's just apostrophes this will be easy. Try selecting one of these characters, copying it to the clipboard, and pasting it into the find and replace dialogue. Then type a regular apostrophe in the replace field and hit replace all. You should be in business. Just look around after you're done with the find/replace to make sure nothing weird happened, like check to be sure there are no spaces around the apostrophes. Hth, Kellie
