Can't be sure without an example but if you could please post a
link to a (Zipped) instance, I'd be happy to take a look.
Meanwhile, please note you can use the Character Inspector
palette (via Window -> Palettes) to identify any individual
character (or string), and depending on the desired outcome, you
can use Zap Gremlins and/or search & replace with characters in
hex escape form (as detailed in Chapter 7 of the PDF manual).

least one manual reference, did you? ;-) ]

I often convert database content moving from one type of
database to the other. I always hit an issue with the soft
returns in data within fields, where line breaks were entered
in the application - they convert into weird characters when
exported to text. Is there any way of cleaning these up in
BBEdit without interfering with the hard returns that delineate
a new record? I usually work in Excel or Filemaker pro.
