Here, I'll show you how to filter out 'tek' and 'tips' from a field.
dim theText, filterWords(2),i
theText = request.form("theText"
filterWords(0) = 'tek'
filterWords(1) = 'tips'
for i = 0 to ubound(filterWords)-1
theText = replace(theText,filterWords(i),"@*"
next
where any mention of the words, 'tek' or 'tips' would be replaced with '@*'.
Modify as needed. ;-)
