Carl,
Something like the following is an idea. This might filter a bit more
than what you want, but it is simple enough to modify.
FUNCTION CLEAN.TEXT(TEXT)
TEXT.OUT = ''
FOR Y = 1 TO LEN(TEXT)
TEST=SEQ(TEXT[Y,1])
IF TEST<32 OR TEST>126 THEN
CONTINUE
END
TEXT.OUT := TEXT[Y,1]
NEXT Y
RETURN(TEXT.OUT)
END
