Every time I type the apostrophe, I get an exponent of 5. How do I change it
back to an apsotrophe?
 
Press Ctrl+Z right after it happens.

But, if this is happening all the time, then I wonder if your fonts are

the Office button, Word Options, Proofing, AutoCorrect Options, Autoformat
as you type tab, and removing the check next to "Straight quotes with smart
quotes".

In Word 2003 and earlier, chose Tools, AutoCorrect Options...
