Thanks for the really helpful tips, but so far no luck. I need to use tr because both awk and sed are getting stuck on the line length. The length of the lines in this pollfile is greater than 20,000 characters, the awk command gives me this message:
while the new and improved sed command gives me this message:
When I run tr manually I get the desired results with the original line of code I started with. When it runs from the service I get the error message, so the problem must be within the service. I've logged a defect with the dev group in my company to see if they can isolate the problem in the service.
Thanks for all of your help, I was hoping awk could bypass the problem, but because of the line length it isn't working.
