I changed font in LPEX Editor->Apperance to Terminal, it worked nicely, at least for showing there is something in that position.

Jeff,

Did you try the font: TERMINAL, it will show special characters...

It is the only font that shows the special characters. But, NOT as a
BLOCK, thanks to the way Microsoft re-did the Fonts to hide those special
characters. Hex 22 will show a downward pointing Triangle with the font:
"TERMINAL"

PS. Why don't the use the power of RDi 9.0.1? Are they afraid of learning
new things? Do they like "Text ONLY" web-sites...
<LOL>

I really wish that Microsoft would have kept the fonts the same...

Oh well, out of my hands and out of my control, I am powerless...

NOTE: I always run remove the special characters when I edit my code....

For the record: This is issue is caused by MICRSOFT... <Big Frown>

Thanks Dave and Mike.
Unfortunately, there are a number of developers (and help desk people)
that still use SEU for editing, so I need to leave the attribute character
in place.

Another way is to select the zero width character (yes, LPEX lets you
do that), copy it, and paste it into the Find/Replace dialog.

I use this command at the bottom of the LPEX editor to strip out those
x'22' values:

findText all replaceWith "" regularExpression \u0082

Unicode 0082 is the equivalent of EBCDIC hex 22. You can use the
right click "Source" -> "Hex Edit Line" feature to see Unicode to
EBCDIC CP037 hex equivalents.

I use this command looking for other special characters:

findText regularExpression [^\x20-\x7E]
