The version will not matter, I guess. Try converting your string into ASCII before replacing: newString = Conv(st, "UTF-8", "ASCII") Replace(st, "½", ".5") On my old ASCII-table ½ is chr$(171). So it should work with this one, as it's known in ASCII. If you get an error 32, your string wasn't UTF-8. Next idea: use String.Code to find out the Hex-code of each single character in "st". Then rewrite the replace function for this combination of characters - something like Replace(st, chr$(30) & chr$(1) & chr$(123), ".5")... Hope it helps...
