Hi All,

Iam trying to use below command

tr -cd [:print:] in filter property of sequential file stage , to remove unprintabls in file.

It was throwing error "no record delimiter found ", but it was defined .

Other filter commands such as grep , head etc are working fine .

Is there any other i should use this command ?

Thanks
Vivek

I guess when you removed unprintable characters, that included line terminator characters too, so your record delimiter was gone before the stage read the tr output.
