Sorry but I don't understand. On my Win XP Pro/SP2 system with OO
2.1finding and replacing single quotes simply isn't a problem; I don't
even
have to use regular expressions. The only time I'd need a regular
expression
(RE) is if I want to find/replace single quotes *only* when they
appear as
the first (or last) character of a cell - or for some other reason I'd
want
to use RE's anyway.
And that's exactly what the OP asked about in the first place, isn't it?

My point was that there seems to have been a whole debate about how RE's
don't work when replacing apostrophes, but (a) they do and (b) replacing
them doesn't require REs except under unusual circumstances.
What's your point?
