I have a Table that contains survey results. Sometimes the respondent will add CR or LF within a text window. This appears to be causing Excel to interpret this as the EOR and breaks the rest of the row to the next row.

Is there an easy way to remove these characters before creating the CSV output file?

If insert is happening in a webpage / application - probably best to remove it there or else do an update of table to remove them.
Remove char(13) and char(10)
