I tend to agree with that. You can use a replacelist to get rid of most of the garbage from MS Word. Add as a filter to word pasted data and it should work.

Hello, I'm going through some testing with a Verity results page and for some reason, the data displayed from PDF's shows a lot of question marks for quotes and double quotes. I was thinking about doing a search and replace for these fields but I can't capture what they actually are, because I just see a block. Is this something I can correct by changing a character set? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:321346 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
