Hi
I have a flat file YEXR.
 
Some of the  positions from 601 column to 602 column in the file have got 
letters 'AB'
I want them to be replaced with  '  ' (i mean 2 spaces)..
Since it is not column oriented , Iam nt able to do SQL.
can some one advise how to go erase AB in some of the positions from 601 to 
602...
 
Thanks very much.
Murali.
