Dave,

I don't have the code in front of me, but do something like this. First set up a regexp obj. Set up a pattern...

dim somestring="hello there "

set re=new regexp
re.pattern=""

then do a test for the text that could possibly match the pattern...

if re.test(somestring)then
'switch the matching pattern with <img src=&quot;smilie.gif&quot;>
end if

Sorry I don't have all the code for you, but this is what you need to do (I haven't worked with asp's regexp object in a while so I am rusty on it).
