Subject: Re: apostrophe in access db field

There's also a tag out there called StripAscii that is intended to strip

out MS Word high-ascii chars.

I think it's called CF_StripAsci, and I *think* I got it on the DevEx. 
I use it all the time to reformat text submitted via a textarea in a 
form.  We have a place where users can post articles to our site, and 
most of the time, they are just copying and pasting from Word to the 
textarea, which mucks things up.  I've found that this tag works wonders

with that app.
