Yes. CHR(10) is linefeed ("LF"). CHR(13) is carriage return ("CR", aka
"^M").
Enjoy! :)

Hi all-
I am trying to write a query that strips carriage returns from a comment
field while selecting the data to a file. I have used the following
command -
select replace( field1, chr(10), '*' ) from table1;
The query seems to remove the carriage returns when returning the data via
sqlplus, but when I spool the output to a file it still shows ^m followed by
* in it. Any ideas on what is going on here?
Thanks for any help.
Wendy
