I am trying to remove the 'carriage return' or 'line feed' from a text file.
I tried using the RIGHT and MID commands but it is not working.

I have searched the community website for examples but could not find any.

Could someone please help me out.

Thank you.

Replace(strData,vbLF,"") for linefeed
Replace(strData,vbCrLF,"") for CRLF

If this post helps click Yes

You can try a few things...

Delete All Hard Returns:
Sub Remove_CR_LF()
With Selection
..Replace What:=Chr(39), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
..Replace What:=Chr(146) & Chr(10), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
..Replace What:=Chr(180), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
End With
End Sub

Sub Remove_CR_LF()
With Selection
..Replace What:=Chr(160), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
..Replace What:=Chr(13) & Chr(10), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
..Replace What:=Chr(10), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
End With
End Sub


I think those are ASCII Chr(13); yo may have other things in there too...
Backup your data before running any macros, just in case the results are
unintended...
