many of your example lines have only one instance of that character.

Otherwise you could just use something like  print ((split /\xA0/,$_)[1])

    yes... I'm familiar with and also comfortable with split...
    What I showed was an excerpt of the intersection of two files, one of which has 1 occurance, and one that has two. I will just do something to the data first, depending on which instance before I append them together...

    Thank you for your help...
