RE: ^M character

P.S. sorry if this is MIME'd, we just switched to Outlook, and i do not how to check, or turn it off. if it's just a a one time, one file fix, you can just open it in vi and to a global search and replace (remembet to hit crtl-V before ctrl-M). i.e. %s^V^M//g - where the "^" represent you hitting the CTRL key (you will only se ^M on your line) i had this problem once, and a nice person on the UNIX forums wrote this for me.. #! /usr/bin/sed -nf # # \\\\// H t x s/\\n//g p s/.*// h which, you would have to be a script with input and outputs... like # scriptname < infile > outfile helpful? all this is assuming, of course that you are on UNIX.
