Removing CRLF from text

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Hi Mark,

If I follwed this thread  even partially, I believe you're just trying  
to get rid of empty lines. Correct?
So why not rebuild the whole thing by examining each line; if it is  
empty, skip it; otherwise add it to a new var on its next line.
Once you've done the whole lot, replace the text with this new var.

I've probably missed the whole issue, but????
