I'm finding with the Find and Replace feature that it seems to only
work with text and not with things like carrier returns, tabs, etc.

I have a very long csv mailing list of 15,000 names which is
single-spaced except that about every 10-20 lines there is an extra
carrier return at the end of the line - i.e., two carrier returns
instead of one.

Instead of scrolling down through all these entries in order to remove
the extra CR, I would like to be able to just search and replace the 2
CRs for 1 CR, but I can't find how to do it. I would appreciate any
help you can give. I am very grateful for the help I receive in this
group - thank you all!
