>>What would be the syntax to find all of the strings that look like:
®, ™ (i.e. the format amprsand[any character(s)]semicolon) in
a string?
I would put a limit on the length of the string between & and ;,
otherwise you may end up with unwanted long strings.
Try this : "&#?[a-zA-Z0-9]{1,8};"
You may have to double the # if you are within CF code.
This will catch something like & or or  , but not
"... the Jo Blow & ass. company ;..."
