nice one. I've been extending your CleanMSText custom tag a little bit, e.g. replacing the deprecated <u> with the equivalent in CSS, and a few extra MS Word nonsense html tags you'd missed out. Still want to do more on this, e.g. replacing all use of <font> tags, but that'll be more work to parse it.

If you still need this, I've written a fairly basic UDF which runs through the tags and sets all the non-quoted code to lower case. This is the first version of the function, so there may be bugs etc. Feel free to use it, or hack it to pieces. But if you do make any modifications or find bugs, let me know what they are and I'll add them to the pot.
