IA,

The following code should be close to what you want

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

Hi,

I have a column with carriage returns (chr(13) ) and line feeds (chr(10)). I want to select this column replacing the chr(13) with 'R' and chr(10) with ' ' .

Whats the best way to do this?

Regards

IA
