Hi,
I am having a pipe (|) delimited file which is having ^Z character in the middle of the text.Could anyone please suggest me how to remove this ^Z Character from the file.I almost used all the ideas posted in this site but none of them worked in my case since tis ^Z character is not coming at the EOF but in the middle of the text.

please help.:slight_smile:

sed 's/^Z//g' filename

Hi Everyone,
I thank you all for your timely help. I have used %s/^Z//g and ^Z Character is removed from the file.
