Select to suit, Search, Replace \r\n with 'space' (using Extended).

Notepad ++ puts a carriage return and a line feed at the end of each line (automatically when Enter is pressed). These can be displayed if Show All Characters is toggled (the pilcrow – ‘¶’, like a reversed P) and in Extended Mode accessed with \r for return and \n for new line. To substitute these two control codes with a space just place them in Find what : and hit Space in Replace with ::

Thank , I will do it with two step 1. replace \r\n by one string. After that replace string by space. – user2400643 – 2013-05-21T19:03:44.477

Here's what I do for that :

Ctrl + A: selects all.
Ctrl + J: aligns them in a row.

to whoever wonders, this can be found under Edit->Line Operations->Join Lines – mihail – 2019-03-05T08:08:11.123

I agree, this is the best answer. – Cold – 2014-02-18T09:30:31.853

This is nice, although it doesn't work as expected when there are multiple columns. I know it wasn't asked for by OP, I'm just saying. – Homer – 2014-03-26T18:12:09.990
