Tim,
I tried your suggestion but couldn't get it to work. One entry of my  
text looks something like this:

<paraStyle:Full_Name>John Doe<0x000D><ParaStyle:Address>123 Winding  
Way<0x000D><ParaStyle:City_St_Zip>Allover, PA 1345<0x000D>

Should this work or am I missing something? Thanks for you input.

Chad

Depends on what the rest of your file looks like. Have a look at the
rest of my comments on the original thread and see if that helps.

Chad,

It would really help if you could give a sample of how your data is  
stored within FileMaker (distributed over some records and/or fields).

Quite frankly, I don't understand why everybody tries to use all kinds  
of clumsy work arounds, while a clean and easy XSLT style sheet would  
solve all problems.

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)
Um... personally it's because I don't yet know what an XSLT style sheet is!
But this exchange of knowledge is how we learn. I'm flagging your response
to follow up later, but am too busy to spend time learning something new
just now!
