Thank you Wendell and Andrew! That makes a lot more sense. I
understand the argument now of why you need entities at all!
Unfortunately, the vendor still requires that these characters be
substituted with their proper entity symbols. That being said, is
there an easier way to substitute those characters other than
manually or using a find/change routine to do so? Also, the one issue
that I am running into is the fact that if I try to put an entity
symbol into the file such as &test; when I process the file, it
converts it to &test;. It's like it won't allow me to use the &
symbol even when using it in the name of the entity. Whew, I'm tired!

This doesn't necessarily mean the character has become a box character in the data; it could still be the correct character, just hard to see and hard to check for correctness.
