title: Convert Text String to HTML String
body: <p>Is there a way to convert below text string to html string without using replace ?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Text String</strong></p>
  
  <pre>
   {"a":"\u003cul class=\"ylist ylist-bordered search-results\"\u003e\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\u003cli class=\"add-search-result\"\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"search-result yla biz-listing-large www-yla-unit-color-555555-ffefcb\" data-key=\"ad_business\"\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cspan class=\"yla-tip\"\u003eYelp Ad\u003c/span\u003e\n\n\n\t\t\u003cdiv class=\"media-block media-block-large clearfix main-attributes\"\u003e\n\t\t\t\u003cdiv"}
  </pre>   
  
  <p><strong>HTML String</strong></p>
  
  <p><pre> </p>
  
  <pre><code>{"a": "&lt;ul class=\"ylist ylist-bordered search-results\"&gt;\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t&lt;li class=\"add-search-result\"&gt;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t&lt;div class=\"search-result yla biz-listing-large www-yla-unit-color-555555-ffefcb\" data-key=\"ad_business\"&gt;\n\t\t\t&lt;span class=\"yla-tip\"&gt;Yelp Ad&lt;/span&gt;\n\n\n\t\t&lt;div class=\"media-block media-block-large clearfix main-attributes\"&gt;\n\t\t\t&lt;div class=\"media-avatar\"&gt;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\t&lt;div class=\"photo-box biz-photo-box pb-90s\"&gt;\n\t\t\t&lt;a href=\"/adredir?position=0&amp;amp;redirect_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yelp.com%2Fbiz%2Fez-pawn-corp-new-york-3&amp;"}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p></pre></p>
  
  <p>I tried below code but its not working as expected (excel-vba)</p>
  
  <pre><code> Dim html As Object
      Set html = CreateObject("htmlfile")
      html.body.innerText = strDiv
      Debug.Print   html.body.innerHTML
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If i copy the text string to <code>http://jsonlint.com/</code> to validate the string it returns the converted html string.</p>
