Yes, you are correct Igor.
It was taken from an example I had which did 3 replaces.
I did manage to substitute the 13 and 10 correctly though


select replace(replace(a,chr(13),'R'),chr(10),'')  from table

Looks like you've got "one too many" REPLACEs.

IA,

The following code should be close to what you want

select replace(replace(replace(a,chr(13),'R'),chr(10),''))  from table
