Component to replace accented characters in a string

[Jeff Levinson [mcsd]]

I don't know of a component like that, but it is really
easy to do yourself. First, the String.Replace function is
unicode based so it's quite easy to use extended and
standard characters interchangeably.

What I would recommend is to create an object that holds
the basic character and extended character in unicode (use
this as a map for conversion) and then create a shared
method on the object that ran the replace command and
replaced one with the other.

Hi,

I'm looking for a .net (or COM) component which can replace all accentedcharacters in a Unicode string by their non-accented equivalent.
ie: "café" would be transformed to "cafe"

Thanks for any information which will help me in this task.
