Removing all characters but alphanumeric

[ds_debasis]

Removing all characters but alphanumeric (i.e. [A-Z] [a-z] [0-9]) from input strings. This string is coming from a comma separated sequential file. And I need to remove it from only one column.

Thanks

Welcome aboard. :D

There's nothing out of the box to perform this particular task in parallel jobs. It's probably easiest to use something like an External Filter stage invoking tr sed or awk to perform the parsing.

It was a quick reply. Let me try to filter it in unix .

Thanks again
