Chances are, you aren't handling the fancier versions of things.

You've handled the hyphen, but not the mdash or the ndash, for example.

It probably uses carraige return/line feeds (chr(13) and chr(10)), so you need to handle both of those.

Just some gueses.

Okay, I'm trying to strip out html entity codes that don't play nicely with
RTF for a "download as word doc" feature. I have it working for a bunch of
them, but this one doesn't work:
str = replace(str, '&##61623;', 'chr(10)', 'All');

And this one only works sometimes:
str = replace(str, '&##8211;', '-', 'ALL');

Where as all these work:
str = replace(str,"&##8217;", "'", "ALL");
str = replace(str,'&##8220;', '"', 'ALL');
str = replace(str,'&##8221;', '"', 'ALL');
str = replace(str, '&##8212;', '--', 'ALL');
str = replace(str, '-', '-', 'ALL');
str = replace(str, '&##8230;', '...', 'ALL');
str = replace(str, "&##8216", "'", "ALL");

I'm going a little nuts here. What am I missing?
