The one thing that I desperately wish it could do is ADD quotes to text like TextSoap can do and then my life would be complete.
tl;dr WordService can remove quotes, but can't add them to text. Would love that.

Unfortunately, this method does not let you define functions that can see what the text it's changing contains, so it cannot replace most of the great functionality in WordService.

Unless, of course, someone out there knows a way to do this.

How do I install and use MacUpdate?
NOTE: I was a heavy Windows, Word, Outlook user and am trying to adapt to the Mac.
Thanks......

In Leopard they just appeared - if I remember correctly.
Oh, and make sure you have text selected...

Yes, it's a step backward, but in Mac OS 10.4, "Services" is not a menu on the menu bar. It's in the application menu (e.g., "TextEdit") under the sub-menu for "Services". It's intermixed with all of the other services.
That makes it 1 step more work to use. So I would only use those that you can put on keys.
BTW, I also discovered that the key shortcuts are disabled for those keys that are already used by the application. To fix this, redefine the shortcut to a key available in all of the applications you use it with.
