You will have to have a seperate Replace statement for all emoticons possible.

Quote You will have to have a seperate Replace statement for all emoticons possible.

I tried but It didn't work... something like MSN = Replace(rMSN(2), ":)", "<img src=""GfX/Emoticons/01.gif"">" & Replace(rMSN(2), ":(", "<img src=""GfX/Emoticons/02.gif"">")

it was repeated twice, I tried others but didn't work...
how can i make: replace (A by) B and (C by D) and (E by F) and (....)  in one statment...

come on.. you are the experts
