check out for the syntax of Replace on BOL .. i guess you have not specied it correctly ..

If Debugging is the process of removing Bugs then i Guess programming should be process of Adding them.

Perhaps there are no char(13) in your column, or there are also char(10) !

use ascii() function to find out the ascii code for the and then use replace() to remove it.

What type of character is it?
New line or any other special char?

use this to find out the ascii code of the characters that ' ' or box character. It only lists the first 10 characters ascii code for that column. Modify the code to add more n if the character is not within the first 10 chars.

select	local_notes, n, substring(local_notes, n, 1), ascii(substring(local_notes, n, 1))
from locals,
(
select 1 as n union all select 2 as n union all select 3 as n union all select 4 as n union all select 5 as n union all
select 6 as n union all select 7 as n union all select 8 as n union all select 9 as n union all select 10 as n

) num
where n <= len(local_notes)
and ...
