Hello List, I mentioned that I'd fixed my problem with the special characters. Everybody had some great tips... I like to use Adobe Go Live to design web pages and it has a text editor that leaves file in the right format... so I just used it to save the files. If you use NOTEPAD or many others... they will not save them properly. I asked Sim Ayers about my problem.. (he's the one who sold me the great scripts.) He sent me the attached CGI script that will remove them automatically... I haven't used it... but thought I'd share it with the list. BE CAREFUL... it will remove them from every file that is in the directory and all sub directories. RECURSIVE!!! Just make you a special directory under your cgi-bin and then you can run this program by pointing to it on the command line of your browser... it has some commands in it that will tell you about errors if you do it this way. Again... thanks for all the help. John Ford HIS ORIGINAL MESSAGE TO ME FOLLOWS.......... __________________________________________________________ John, Perl Studio will always save the file in the Windows CR -LF style. Run the attached file in the directory you have the scripts. It will replace all the Window line feeds with a Unix line feed. Run it in a test directory first. It will recurse into subdirectories.

My problem is the line feed character after each line. How do I make perl-studio save files without the windows line feed - but save the file in unix format. Thanks. John Ford
