That is precisely what "smart quotes" is all about. Smart Quotes *means* that you key in " and get the little curly quotes. If you don't like that, disable smart quotes and when you want curly quotes, insert them from the Insert/Symbol pull-down. FWIW I personally use both: curly quotes when typing for humans and regular "ASCII" quotes when writing documentation and training and tech support examples, which I do a lot. I have toggled between disabling smart quotes and inserting them from the pull-down, versus enabling smart quotes and using the pull-down when I want "ASCII" quotes. I have settled on the latter approach. When I am "just typing" I get curly quotes and when I am thinking about a documentation example then I insert "ASCII" quotes. YMMV.
