title: Defining html special characters as an entity or element to be replaced by a Unicode character in XSD
body: <p>I have a XML doc with a bunch of html special character encoding throughout. These need to be switched over to a Unicode set in order to display correctly in Access, where I'm importing them to.</p>
  
  <p>I managed to do this simply by opening notepad and replacing the text, which worked. But as this data is volatile I was hoping there was some way I'd be able to define the characters as entities/elements in an XSD schema that would automatically replace the hmtl code as it Unicode equivalent.
  So:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&amp;ndash;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Automatically would become:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&amp;#x2013;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I thought something as simple as the below would work; but had no luck.
