Basically, when you copy and paste into a window these days, you need to go back into the window and remove all the commas and apostrophes and replace them with new ones. That removes the symbols. And always ‘preview’ before you post.

Thanks for this one, by the way.

You're welcome! And I've been well reminded about the retroactive removals. I couldn't imagine where the Euro symbols came from, because I know I didn't use them when I wrote the essay in the first place!

(On the other hand, it could have been worse---the program could have inserted hammers and sickles!)
