I don't use OWB, so excuse my ignorance. What does it mean that the file is opened correctly with CR and \N? What are "CR" and "\N"?
Also, what happens when you open it with Notepad? How does the file look like in Notepad? Any chance to attach a screenshot so that we could see it? If it is not obvious, describe what's wrong with it.
I'm just blindly guessing: are you bothered by the line terminator (EOL)? MS Windows Notepad has limited capabilities, but - if you have it (or can download and install) some other editor, such as Notepad++, then you'd see that it contains, under the Edit menu, "EOL Conversion" submenu which allows you to switch between Windows, Unix and Mac format. Would something like that do any good in solving your problem?
If so, you might need to investigate whether OWB offers different settings while creating files and choose some other option, different from the one you use now. For example, clear the "Unix style save" checkbox (this is an option TOAD offers; as I said, I don't use OWB) because of the difference between Carriage Return & Line Feed and their combination.
