If you have Microsoft Word, it will do this automatically. Just make sure that "Replace straight quotes with smart quotes" is turned in in the Tools ... AutoCorrect Options ... AutoFormat tab, and then do a search-and-replace, and just type in a regular quote in both the search and replace boxes, and do "Replace All." It automatically converts all the straight quotes into curly quotes. Repeat with an apostrophe in both search and replace boxes if you want apostrophes to be converted to curly apostrophes too.

Of course, that presumes you have access to Word, and that your file is in a format that Word can edit.

On edit, I see that DaleDe mentioned this before me. Somehow I missed that post. Oh well. My bad!
