Thank you again Jim for your support. I noticed the missing "e" in your original post and edited it but that didn't make a difference. :-)

Regarding your second command post, I can't post the output but I can see every new line is "\r\n".

BTW, I am not sure if I was that clear about the blank line aspect, I was hoping the grep command would grab the two lines and then insert a blank line for readability. I am not sure if that was what your suggestion of " -e '^$' " would do but regardless, I am at least getting the two lines which is helpful.

Thank you again for your support. It is appreciated.
