Hi there, trying to make a templating engine udf function to handle string replacement but I can't seem to figure out how to handle carriage returns. I want to insert a carriage return when my engine processes <cr> string.

Here's my code. The red line is my attempt to do the carriage return but it doesn't do it. It just ignores it. Help please? Thanks
Code:
Function proceng(rawstr As String)
Application.Volatile
mtypesel = Sheet1.Range("mtypesel")
refnum = Sheet1.Range("refnum")
vtypesel = Sheet1.Range("vtypesel")
shipzip = Sheet1.Range("shipzip")
destzip = Sheet1.Range("destzip")
orgcity = Sheet1.Range("orgcity")
destcity = Sheet1.Range("destcity")
orgport = Sheet1.Range("orgport")
destport = Sheet1.Range("destport")
orgcnty = UCase(Sheet1.Range("orgcnty"))
destcnty = UCase(Sheet1.Range("destcnty"))
template = Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(rawstr, "<ref #>", refnum), "<truck size>", vtypesel), "<org zip>", shipzip), "<dest zip>", destzip), "<org city>", orgcity), "<org port>", orgport), "<dest port>", destport), "<org cnty>", orgcnty), "<dest cnty>", destcnty), "<mode>", mtypesel)
[COLOR=#ff0000]template = Replace(template, "<cr>", Chr(10))[/COLOR]
proceng = template
End Function
