Hi, i got a dillema... for a company i need to make every occurence of it's company name to be in red and bold font.
i have writen a simple function that i can call and filter all text database records

Function companyName(inputText)
 If inputText<>"" Then
  companyName= Replace(inputText,"CompanyName","<font color=""#FF0000""><b>CompanyName</b></font>")
 Else
  inputText = ""
 End if
End Function 

Ok that above seems to work most of the time, only recently i have encountered a few glitches using the function as it is, i'll try to explain.

If the "CompanyName" is found in a link, say <a href="http://www.companyname.com/someurl.htm">Some url</a> the link gets broken as the above function will replace the company name in the href invalid, same will occur in img tag making the img url invalid.
mmn, now i'm thinking about it i believe only those 2 actually can break stuff, all other tags should be able to be replaced without wrecking the site

Would there be a possibility using RegExp to replace only those strings when not in <a> and <img> tag?

Please be gentle, these are my first steps into RegExp
