There is no point in spoon feeding you an answer that you do not understand and cannot support when you need to adjust it in the future.

So now you're in the situation Robin (rbatte1) warned you about.
What have you tried so far to find the cause? Did you see any diagnostic message when you ran the script? What was the return code? Does it work if you do what the script is supposed to do by hand for one file?

I have tried running sed 's/$/\r/' < input.txt > output.txt ux2dos also

The script runs ok no errors and the file gets placed in the Output Directory like it is supposed to do. I have tried opening the file in word and Notepad but it is still messed up in unix format.

WHAT exactly do you expect sed 's/$/\r/' < input.txt > output.txt ux2dos to do? I think it's time now to dive into a detailed analysis of every single step and its results.

I thought that this would convert the UNIX format text file called input.txt to DOS format, writing the result to a file called output.txt.

So ... ?

Please be aware that YOU are sitting in the driver seat, nobody else can see what you see on the terminal nor control what you control. I F you want decent help, provide decent information - in this case that might be the results of the conversion steps, or the test steps as proposed by cero in post#8.

AND - read complete suggestions, to their entirety, AND answer ALL questions!

So.... it goes through also but same result as the script.. Puzzled at the moment

Well, please show us your input, commands and output/errors. Please wrap them in CODE tags for clarity and to preserve spacing, which is important for indenting or fixed-width data.

Just saying it's gone wrong is like ringing up the local mechanic to say that your car has a problem and asking them to diagnose over the phone. Could it be flat battery, wrong key, flat tyre, out of fuel, damage/vandalism etc.

If you don't show us/tell us clearly, how will they know you have a broken bulb?
