import LaTeX and encoding issues

[Raymond Brock]

Hi
I'm using Lyx1.4.1 on a mac running OS10.4.5...I'm trying to import a  
perfectly fine LaTeX file prepared in Texshop. My problem is that  
when the file comes in, every apostrophe and dash is encoded as  
nonsense character strings. I've tried setting Texshop to produce  
Unicode 8 and MacOSRoman, even Latin 1. And, I've tried to match up  
what Lyx says it will deal with in the Document preferences...but to  
no avail. Quotes, no problem. Apostrophes, a problem. An example:

Youâve all heard it; youâve probably uttered  (Latin I)

or

 thatÕs simply wrong.  (MacOSRoman in Texshop and Latex default in Lyx)

This is going to be a real pain...Any ideas?

thanks
