------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Mar 13 04:53:32 -0800 2005 ------- Edit - Replace does not replace straight quotes with custom quotes even when everything is enabled for it to do so. The procedure I followed is: 1. Tools - AutoCorrect/AutoFormat - Custom Quotes : checked boxes and confirmed that custom quotes were selected. 2. Tools - AutoCorrect/AutoFormat - Options : checked âReplace standard quotes with custom quotes.â (All other boxes were unchecked.) This box is in the âMâ column which suggests that it will be applied while modifying existing text. There is no corresponding box in the âTâ column which suggests that custom quotes cannot be applied while typing. 3. Format - AutoFormat - While Typing : selected this. The program started to use custom quotes as I typed, which was unexpected, because the box checked in step 2 was not in the âTâ column. 4. Format - AutoFormat - Apply : I selected this and as expected, the program ran through its replacement routine for the whole document, but straight quotes were not changed to custom quotes. The language in the AutoCorrect/AutoFormat dialog corresponded to the language of the document. This issue has been raised previously (12600, 40952) and dismissed with âinvalidâ or âworks for me.â But a lot of people seem to be having trouble with this issue. Of course, the same goal can be accomplished by searching and replacing on regular expressions, but the program tells the user it can do this automatically, it seems like it should be able to do so easily, so a fix would be greatly appreciated. Or perhaps the âReplace standard quotes with custom quotesâ was simply put in the âMâ column instead of the âTâ column by mistake? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
