in word 2000K there is an option under autocorrect to change word from
straight quotes to smart quotes


The ascii difference is straight quote = 39, I have the number for the
curly quote but can't find it right this minute. It is on a slip of
paper on the black hole I call a desk.  I am pretty sure I figured it
out by copying it from some other document into the function asc
