You can use a UDF like Demoronize (http://www.cflib.org/index.cfm?event=page.udfbyid&udfid=725) to solve this. I use dpaste.org (Raw View) to find the offending character, get the proper ascii code, and add it to Demoronize to filter these garbage characters. Below are a list that I've added to the original UDF to take out Word quotes, elipses, etc.

text = Replace(text, Chr(96), "'", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(198), "'", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(8216), "'", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(8217), "'", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(8220), """", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(8221), """", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(8230), "...", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(244), """", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(246), """", "All");
text = Replace(text, Chr(8211), "-", "All");
