Removing "Hidden Characters" on a file

Hi -

I'm having a problem with hidden characters on Linux. When I produced an output from Oracle database, there is a an extra "Hidden Character" included on the output. How can I remove that character? See below:

Quote:
InterUnit$
The extra dollar sign is creating a new line on my .csv output file. I tried using sed, but no luck.

Quote:
sed -e 's/"InterUnit$"/"InterUnit"/g' file.csv > file2.csv
Note: The '$' is not being included on HP-UX machines upon my query.
