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.

Hi guys,
I have got files in directory and all the files have got ^M is there any
way to replace all the ^M character in all the file
recursively.
