Nevermind. I was able to figure it out. For anyone else who may be having issues, be sure to use the escape codes for any special characters (https://www.theukwebdesigncompany.com/articles/entity-escape-characters.php). I replaced everything that was out of the ordinary including < > ” ” ^ / ‘ ( ) ,.
The thing that was causing me the most problems was that I replaced all of the regular quotation marks with an escape code, but didn’t realize there were “curly” quotations marks within some of the questions. My find/replace only caught the “straight” quotation marks, so I kept getting an error.
Hope this helps someone out there!
