Just popping in Joined: 2/15/2008 From: Batemans Bay, NSW, Australia Posts: 20	Re: convert special characters to english characters Yutaka, I have just used this technique to write a snippet/macro that changes curly quotes (single and double), sort and long dashes into their equivalent keyboard characters. In the past I have had to do this as a series of "Find and Replace" tasks. Now its a simple highlight the text and click on the snippet. Thank you very much for the tip.
