Removing \n from .csv file
Hi,

I have a requirement like my .csv file is generating from a db2 table using export command like below:

file format:
-----------

Code:
2011	4	0	0	N	S	C		C	"BHPC
BHPC"	0	0	0
2011	5	0	0	N	S	C		C	"BHPC
BHPC"	0	0	0

here BHPC is having new line character and because this when i am trying to load this file to a table it is loading in two rows and this should not be done.
please help me to delete the \n character in between "BHPC
BHPC" with unix commands and at the same time it should load into the table with BHPC BHPC.
I have searched in the forun but couldn`t able to find out the solution.
Please let me know if you want anyother information on this.


Thanks In Advance
Varma.
