Find and change smart quotes for regular quotes

[Sam Beard]

Stuart and Theresa,

   You don't have to turn off the smart quotes to type a regular quote
symbol. All you have to do is type Esc+Shift+" and this will put in a
regular quote symbol. I'm not sure that it will work in the Search
dialog box, though. You could still copy and paste it in, though, I
believe.

Sorry, my bad; I was going by memory.  It sounds like you're finding the

smart quotes ok, it's just the replacement that isn't working.

Well, instead of \g, first turn off Smart Quotes in the FM doc, and then

type a double-quote somewhere, copy it, and paste it into the replace 
with box.

I think...   I'm not in FM right now and don't have time to test.
