    I'm trying to do a simple variable replace with a template I created only to have it save a corrupt docx file. I've identified the issue.

    The XML from my template looks like this:
    [b]$[/b]</w:t></w:r><w:r w:rsidR="00C750CD" w:rsidRPr="00725C26"><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:ascii="Arial" w:hAnsi="Arial" w:cs="Arial"/><w:sz w:val="20"/></w:rPr><w:t></w:t></w:r><w:proofErr w:type="spellStart"/><w:r w:rsidR="00C750CD" w:rsidRPr="00725C26"><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:ascii="Arial" w:hAnsi="Arial" w:cs="Arial"/><w:sz w:val="20"/></w:rPr><w:t>[b]TEST[/b]</w:t></w:r><w:proofErr w:type="gramStart"/><w:r w:rsidR="00C750CD" w:rsidRPr="00725C26"><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:ascii="Arial" w:hAnsi="Arial" w:cs="Arial"/><w:sz w:val="20"/></w:rPr><w:t></w:t></w:r><w:proofErr w:type="spellEnd"/><w:proofErr w:type="gramEnd"/><w:r w:rsidR="00C750CD" w:rsidRPr="00725C26"><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:ascii="Arial" w:hAnsi="Arial" w:cs="Arial"/><w:sz w:val="20"/></w:rPr><w:t xml:space="preserve">[b]$[/b]

    When it should look like [b]$TEST$[/b]. Word is adding in all this extra xml in the middle of my variables, making them unable to be found. Is there a special way to easily clean the Word xml file? Is there a clean function that can be run on the xml file before replacing the variables? I've tried several approaches at writing one with no success.

    I'm using the latest version of Word.

    Thanks.
