Filtering a string

duh!! Wood for the trees and all that

Anyway, that works... However

I am currently working on something that will add quote functionality into vBulletin social group discussions (why this wasn't added is a mystery to me). The reason for the question is that I need to strip out quotes within the quoted post. This is something that occurs when a forum post is quoted so I am guessing that this filtering functionality already exists somewhere in the VB framework, but I will be damned if I can find it.

Does anybody know where it might be, as using the substr etc complicates things as the code will have to cater for all imaginable scenarios.
