| Hii am selecting data from a table which the data is a bit junky because of being copy as test from another system. I have built a view and want to tidy up the following field : description and remove anything between < ><span lang="EN-AU"><p>The printer that is on my desk at Royal Park is emitting some sort of </p><p>vapour when printing - it is clearly visible to the unaided eye.</p><p>Is this normal or is it some indication of a problem ?</p><p>Cheers</p><p>Martin George</p><p>x3714</p><p>0437-688824</p></span> |

How do you want the result to be presented? As a long string, or every "p" element on it's own row?
