dear alan,
i just thought of ms word's autocorrect tool. you can add rules to
automatically replace any character (or set of characters) with others. but,
it works like; when you press a, it appers as a but once you press space bar
it changes to the other character you specified.
or you might use excel's if and text functions. there must be a
function that cahnges ascii codes to letters. but i have a feeling that
you'll use it to write a continious string or text... then you might write a
little text editing application using visual basic, but i can't remember how
to do that. might be a little tedious.
regards,
ceyda
