Applying 'XXX' to multiple lines

Hi there, is there a shortcut function that allows me to insert '' into multiple lines in heidisql (for query WHERE XXX in etc. Currently im adding the '' on excel (im sure theres a better way!)

SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE NAME IN ( john jimmy jamie jack jiff );

becomes

SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE NAME IN ( 'john', 'jimmy', 'jamie', 'jack', 'jiff' );
