I am seeing a few either boxes or dark vertical bars amidst data in a dbf file. I think these are some control character that has been inserted into the file. The file is imported from some mapping software. Is there a way to search for this character? The ASC(FIELD) of this returns 0. I can export to a .txt file and the field appears as a box. I could do the search here also if I knew what the character was. I'd just like to search and remove all of these characters.

thanks
