next line variable

Hi,
Can someone tell me what part of this variable actually creates a "next line" command?  I've tried this and it does create the info on the next line, but always follows it with a question mark.
%OD%0A
Something in the above is creating the question mark and I can't figure out what part of it is doing this.
Example:  Dear John Doe?
              A new file has been created at?
              E:\PUB\DOE?
              E:\PUB\DOE\NEWFILE?
Thanks in advance to greater minds than mine!
Jim

Where are you using this?  I can't get the replacement to occur for the ascii character.
So, in trying to answer your question without testing it myself...
The new line is the %0A.
Have you tried just the carriage return (0D) only?  Because it looks like your getting a line feed from both.  Macintosh stuff likes both.  PC stuff likes just the CR usually.
The other possibility is that you used the letter O, not the number zero.  If you copied it directly to your message above, that is for sure a problem.  The letter O is not a hex character the last time I checked.
