Hi Jeremy and Kripa,

Both of your techniques work -- Thanks!

Although, there's a bit of an oddity.  For some reason, the smart
quotes are represented by chr(226), rather than chr(14[5|6|7|8]).  If
I do a substitution with chr(226) the smart quotes disappear, but they
are replaced with " '<80><9c>" for the left side double smart quote
and "'<80><9d>" for the right side double smart quote.

Not sure why that is -- anyone want to hazard a guess?

Thanks,
Chris
