Trivially done in PowerShell, assuming your requirements are completely stated.
C:\scripts\Stripcrlf.ps1
Param( [string]$path )
$path = $path.Replace( [char]0x0a, '' )
$path = $path.Replace( [char]0x0d, '' )
return $path
>From cmd.exe
Powershell -nologo -file c:\scripts\stripcrlf.ps1 %VARIABLE%

Hi Ben,
Many thanks for the reply. We dynamically build up a %PATH% location and store
into a variable. At this point the content of that variable is a string that
occupies a number of lines. The contents of the variable are then passed
through MakeTxt.exe and the resultant output is a variable of the %PATH%
location expressed as a single line of text..

Can you please give some context for that. I don't really get what's going
on.
The "FOR" built-in command can be used to read lines from a file and
concatenate them into a single line, if that's what you're after.

It's probably an old 16-bit DOS program.

This is a hardware limitation. When in "long mode" (64-bit mode),
x86 processors cannot execute 16-bit code. AMD decided it was time to make a
break from the world of 16-bit when they designed their 64-bit
x86 extensions. (And Intel copied AMD.)
