Get text from quark like xpress tags

Is there a way, besides saving the text box contents to a file, to set a
variable to the text of a particular paragraph, but show the Xpress tags?

My problem is when I pull the following line from the box it looks like
this:

"AVE 04060 White 3122x17162 1 Across 5000 BX"

When in fact the 1/2 is a fraction and the 7/16 is also a fraction, so when
I input it back into a text box, it of course looses its superior and
superscript tag.

But... If I can get it like: (saved out as xpress tags to file)
@08-ChtBody:<cK>AVE 04060 White 3<V>1<$><V->2<$>"x1<V>7<$><V->16<$>"
1 Across <\f>5000 BX

The I preserve my settings of each character in my variable.

Thanks
Jeff Horton
