Default Macro to remove ";"

This macro suggested for my previous question is
returning the error sub or function not defined.
Can some tweak it for me.

Sub Test()

Dim NewStr As String

NewStr = Replace(MyStr, ";;", ";")
If Mid(NewStr, 1, 1) = ";" Then NewStr = Right
(NewStr, Len(NewStr) - 1)
If Right(NewStr, 1) = ";" Then NewStr = Left(NewStr,
Len(NewStr) - 1)
If InStr(NewStr, ";;") Then NewStr = Clean(NewStr)
SemiClean = NewStr


End Sub

Default Macro to remove ";"

Because it is a recursive function (it calls itself) it needs to be a
function, needs the string to be converted passed to it, and needs to be
named "SemiClean"

maybe you want
Sub zReplace()
On Error Resume Next
Do While Not ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Find(";;") Is Nothing
' *.Replace() should return False, but it doesn't on my xl97
Call ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Replace( _
";;", ";", xlPart, xlByRows, False)
Loop
On Error Goto 0
End Sub
