Function to unformat HTML code

Question

I start to build a report with CF Report Builder (8) and at
some point, I realize that one of the field I need to display have
HTML code (e.g.: <p>, <b>, etc...). The fact is that
this field is using a Rich Editor (FCKEditor) when input the text.
Until now, I did not have any problem with this but it displays all
the code in the report (in the CF Report Builder) and it is not
really human-friendly. I saw that it is a function to transform
basic text in HTML but is it something to do the inverse?
Thank's for any help!

Interesting comment: starting with a drastic "no help for
you" and finishing with a hope!!! ;-)) I like it!
Well you actually gave me the idea. I found something on
CFLIB.org yes but it was not doing the job properly so I did my own
code to convert the string before passing it to the CFR (as a
parameter) and as I have only few HTML tags to take car, it was
done in a matter of 2 minutes.
Thank you because you make me thing in a new direction!
