(though it's kind of a pain) is to use refind to grab out the bits I
want, and do something like
string = left(string, pos[1] - 1) & emailAntiSpam(mid(string, pos[1],
len[1])) & right(string, pos[1]+len[1]+1, len(string));
Loop over this until pos[1] = 0;
Ugly, but it works.
Not that it will probably help you do what you're trying to do. :-(
