Hi, working with a large tab delimited text file, trying to clean it up. It has several blocks that show BEL and NUL, please explain what they are. I know that NUL is NULL, I attempted to remove those according to another post, but no luck. I need to remove the BEL and NUL blocks.
Ultimately I'm going to clean this up and format in XML to post on google base. I'd rather send xml instead of tab delimited. Any help on this is appreciated too.
Thanks for a great text editor!

[BEL] is <Ctrl-G> or ASCII character #7. In some modes, it actually sounds a bell.
You can see the complete map with TextFX: TextFX Tools: Insert ASCII Chart or Character.
