Problem
I'm not sure what I did, but the quotes (single and double) in Outlook 2003 have gone from straight vertical quotes to angled quotes. I've looked through Outlook's options and the Autocorrect options, and I can't seem to find anything that would enable/disable this feature?

Fix for: Get rid of "smart quotes" in Outlook
Low Risk
If I remember correctly, you can press Ctrl + Shift + ' to turn this feature on or off. The shortcut is undocumented (it doesn't appear in Keyboard shortcuts), and I'd say it's pretty easy to enable by mistake...
