I just realized I was saying parentheses when I meant quotes. I must've been asleep at the wheel that day, sorry.

Macropod, I tried your wildcard but it doesn't seem to work. Here's an example directly from some text I'm trying to correct:

turn of " those vagabond cheaters " and makers

The original text is Times New Roman but the apostrophes are straight, as they appear here.

It's easy enough to find the apostrophes & text, but what I need to do--and so far haven't been able to do--is replace with the same text as that in the Find bar, only with the spaces removed.
