Thanks... Such simple information, and yet leaves those of us out in the cold so frustrated and guessing. Much appreciated.

I'd alternate the bracket type for the quote within the quote (like you'd do in English as well). You can use 二重かぎ括弧(にじゅうかぎかっこ)"double hook brackets" to clarify it:
彼女は「彼は『いいえ』と言いました」と言いました。

Why is it 言い now and not 言って? In another sentence "she said yes" was 言って and not 言い. I'm getting increasingly confused
