    The search for "quote symbols"

    Hello all,
    Sometimes inch is abbreviated "
    This obviously becomes a problem when exporting data (delimited fields etc)



    I would like to find a way to find all of these & all ' & remove them
    Could this be done with a query or does someone know how it could be done.

    Thanks
    Wayne
