driving me crazy. I was hoping someone may have had a need to do this in the
past and created some UDF or CFX that would do what I'm looking for... any
ideas?

According to the URL you posted:
"Scripting developers have two options available:
1. Convert your XML documents to UTF-16-formatted Unicode, either
automatically or by hand.Escape all non-Unicode character encodings inside
the XML document using XML Unicode entity references. Any XML character
can
be encoded in plain ASCII using the form &#xxxx, where xxxx is its index
into the Unicode character set.
2. Escape all non-Unicode character encodings inside the XML document
using XML Unicode entity references. Any XML character can be encoded in
plain ASCII using the form &#xxxx, where xxxx is its index into the
Unicode
character set."
Out of curiosity, have you identified the invalid characters?
