I don't know where that one resides, but when I need to strip HTML tags
from text I just set the htmlText of a field and then get the text of
that field.
Ken Ray recently discovered this works with the templateField as well,
so you don't need to rely on a physical field to do this:
function html2text pHtml
put the htmlText of the templateField into tSaveData
set the htmlText of the templateField to pHtml
get the text of the templateField
set the htmlText of the templateField to tSaveData
return it
end html2Text
