It depends which version you are running as to where this is, but you can turn off this behaviour. Uncheck the following option:
Tools / AutoCorrect Options / AutoFormat / Replace / "Straight Quotes" with "Smart Quotes"

In Office 2007 you can change the formatting that Word does automatically through the main button on the ribbon.
If you want this behavior changed permanently: Under Proofing > AutoCorrect Options > Autoformat as you type... You can de-select Straight Quotes as Smart Quotes and that should revert the quotes to being straight.

The key that you are looking for is " character 0022. To get it, go to insert symbol, and then look under basic latin.
Do a find and replace to change all of the quotes that you have to this one.
If you wish, you can create a shortcut or autoreplace to do this for you, but that may be more than what you are looking for.

The simplest method is probably to type the text in a text editor (Notepad, Notepad++, whatever) and copy and paste it to Word. The automatic conversion of Ascii quotation marks to language-specific quotation marks is applied only on direct keyboard input.
