Re: Help with searching for carriage return symbol

[Jay McNally jmcnally@xxxxxxxx]

This is an easy one:
on the command line, type CTRL+Enter and you will get the character to
search for. I use it dozens of times a day, usually as a search and replace.
Another great thing about the SEarch command, you can use spaces for the
"delimiter," or whatever its called, instead of another character.
thus, the command to find the carriage return is (I am not sure the proper
way to type this out, but you can figure it out) It is in the reference manual:

SE followed by two spaces ctrl+enter followed by space then F9, or execute

OR: SE /CTRL+ENTER/ XC
