I'm having some difficulty getting this search and replace correct. The file I'm searching looks like this:
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,02,00,01,00,39,\  00,39,00,39,00,39,00,30,00,30,00,30,00,30,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\ I'm trying to replace the four 39's with a custom number...here is my code for the search: 

$line =~ s/39,\\\\r\\n00,39,00,39,00,39/3$fields[0],\\\\r\\n00,3$field
+s[1],00,3$fields[2],00,3$fields[3]/g;

I've seperated it down to the carriage return...I've tried \\r, \\n, & \\r\\n with no luck. I do know I can do a replace in Ultraedit with ^p.

Thanks in advance!

Edited by Chady -- added code tags.
