I need to remove all ACII 13 characters from a field in a database. Each entry could have multiple ASCII 13 characters. Is there a way to do this?

With nothing else to go on:

for each field

  go through the field character by character and concat all
    non ASCII 13 to a variable.
  replace the field with the variable.

Without knowing the OS, the specific database and such, that is the best I can offer.

Steve,
The database is Open Office Base.  The OS should not matter.

Base supports using SQL commands to update fields; I don't have the specific syntax handy, but I know it can be done quite simply. I'm not sure how the ASCII 13 would be represented for the command, and it may be affected by what the database engine is that is accessing the data. Is this an embedded database (i.e., HSQLdb) or is it being connected to?
