Another alternative is to use HTML Tidy's setting to clean up MSWord's
HTML. Does it all in the click of a button and works really well. You can
also apply any number of settings or remove whatever, so it's fully
customizable. It's saved my sanity on many occasions, cleaning up all the
outrageous Word HTML in the blink of an eye.

Warmly,
Shirley
