Peter,
Thanks for your input.
You misunderstood the problem. The point is the SAP needs that LF and CR (chr(10) and
chr(13)).
Of course, I used a hex editor to look at it, they are OK (0A and 0D). That's why it
is frustrate.
Anybody who had a similar problem before, please help me.
Thanks,
Kitty

Strip out the chr(10) and chr(13) using
update tname set field = replace(field,chr(13),' ')
where instr(column_name,chr(13)) > 0 having count(*) > 0;'
BUT check whether you want to replace your chr(10) and chr(13) with a space(
' ') or nothing ('').
Use the above 'where' clause in a select to look for these non-printers
first.
Oh yes - don't judge data contents by what Notepad might show you. Use a hex
editor (or dump) if you really want to check.
