 Re: Whoto remove line feed control character from report output You are talking about Carriage Return (CR, ^M, Hex 0D, Dec 13). Line Feed (LF, ^J, Hex 0A, Dec 10) is the usual "End of line" in Unix, for example the row delimiter in unload files. ^M often appears if you work with windows or DOS where "end of line" is marked with the sequence "^M^J". How do you create your "flat file"?
