News flash: Even with "Find Straight Quotes" checked in the Spelling
Checker Options dialog, Frame will NOT look for straight apostrophes.
(At least not Frame 9.)

To you Richard, and to Fred: Completely forgot about that, thank you. I
have spell checked this document and those didn't turn up so obviously I
had the option turned off.

Nadine, didn't think about that either. I did look for ideas about a
special combination of keys that would represent a standard apostrophe,
like backslash-something.

Thank you,
Tim

A spell check can fix those for you. In the Spelling Checker dialog,
click Options. In the Options dialog, make sure Find Straight Quotes is
selected. FM will offer to replace each straight quote with the
appropriate curly quote.
