What do you want to accomplish? Is the input file in ASCII, or EBCDIC with trailing ^M (0x0D) characters? I cannot duplicate that program using normal z/OS UNIX commands (due to IBM's "brain dead" sed compared to GNU sed). However, if you want to remove all 0x0D characters, even those in the middle of a line, you can: tr -d '\015' <input.file >output.file.without.x0d If you have Perl installed, then this will do what I think you want: perl -n -i.bak -e 's/\015$//;print' input.file At the end of this program, input.file will have trailing 0x0d (015 octal) characters removed. The original file will be "input.file.bak". If you don't want a "backup" file, then: perl -n -i -e 's/\015$//;print' input.file will work. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
