How to put Hex character into REPLACE?

[Art Kendall]

I have a string variable that has an unknown character in the 7th position.
One chart shows it as a line feed
what do I put in the second argument of a REPLACE.
COMPUTE T.crop04 = REPLACE(T.Crop04, something," ").

* pasted from output file.
do if any (26, crop01 to crop10).
print /Record.ID(f8)
 /t.crop04 (AHEX50)
 /t.crop04 (A25).
end if.
execute.

I believe a solution was presented in this thread:
http://spssx-discussion.1045642.n5.nabble.com/how-might-I-get-spss-to-read-this-td5739188.html

in short:

COMPUTE t.crop04 = REPLACE(t.crop04, STRING(10, PIB1), '  ').

HTH, PR
