What Jittu said has worked for me on ARS 7.5.  Note that you have to open the 
expression editor (the expand button on the value) to do that - you can't enter 
the line return or even cut & paste
"
"
directly into the value for the field.

Subject: Re: REPLACE() Function for line-feed / carriage-return

**

Hi,
    if you mean to identify new line(\n) and replace that with another 
character we can do that using set field and REPLACE() function

in set field -->
REPLACE($Input String$, "
", "^")


eg        input     bmc
                          software
                          pune

       output       bmc^software^pune


you can do this through a button or an active link service action calls filter 
with service execution option and do set field.



Regards

Hey Kids;

Is there a way to use the REPLACE() function in a filter to remove line feeds 
and/or carriage returns from text?  Is there a special character code?  I've 
tried to paste one into the function with double-quotes around it, but the 
function doesn't seem to recognize it.  I just want to replace it with anything 
like "^", to further parse the string as a single line.

Thanks in advance;
