I am using Infopath to collect rich text from a word document and for some
weird reason the output I get in the XML has the special B character in it.

I understand that the UTF-8 encoding etcetra causes it to be visible that way.

Also I have the bEUR" character at several locations.

I do not have control over the way Infopath converts this rich text into XHTML
inside mixed custom XML elements.

I do not have control over the source word documents that have enormous
amounts of "spaces" in odd locations.

I am wondering how I can write a convenient global find/replacer that would
essentially go through ANY and EVERY element or text node in the given source
XML(hybrid HTML) and replace the following:

B    with    (nothing) (eliminate it)
<I don't even want the spaces to appear>
bEUR"  with  - (dash)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
....

			<font face="Times New Roman">
				<strong>Dangerous bEUR" Management Danger </strong>
				<span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">(former Danger &amp; Is Now)</span>
				<strong>B B B B  B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B  (0/99 bEUR"
Present)</strong>
			</font>
		</div>
		<h1>hello1</h1>
......
				<tr>
					<td><div style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; MARGIN-TOP: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in;

				</tr>
