Hi ,
I'm getting a special character @ in files.
What is this character to remove it.

Like ^M is (ctrl-v ctrl-m).

Thanks,
Chetan.C

Every character is special...

Try using the Convert() function to remove it.

Are you sure it's not ^@ (Ctrl @)?

^@ is how ASCII codepoint 0 is represented. This is the default value of APT_STRING_PADCHAR; the character with which Char data types are padded to length.

Or none of them are, being just... characters.
