Hi bakunin,

Thanks for your commands.

Instead of using Unix commands I have opened the file which is having pipe delimiter in Notepad++
and every line is having CRLF and only LF.
whereever we have single LF we are facing issue.To avoid the issue, I have replaced the individual value LF with CR then i exported the file into Unix server.After that It is working fine.

But I have one file which is having 850 MB (89,18,51,027 bytes) in size and i could not able to open in Notepad++.If we use the Unix command to do the same fix for this file then issue will resolve.

I used command which you have suggested and other commands to but not working as expected.

Code:

sed 's/^M$//' /path/to/file

Could you please let me know is there any way to do so.

Thanks,
Narasimha
