Please does anyone know the answer to a simple problem.

I have a file with mabey 350 lins of data a day, the lines of data look like the below.

113M,583M,78

All I want to do is to look at this file called data.csv and remove the M so it will look like this...

113,583,78

Regards

Ian
 
cat your_file|tr -d"M"
 
Thanks so much.

I tried all sorts of things with tr and thats all it was.
Couldn't see the forest for all the trees where in the way.

Regards

Ian
 
Also...
Code:
    sed 's/M//g' data.csv
Hope this helps.
