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]
