Default Search and replace hard-line-return character, not carriage return

Could somebody tell me the charater representation for hard line returns. I
am trying to clean up some text and have non-printing characters (the arrow
shown on the keyboard "Enter" key) that I am unable to identify with the
"Search and Replace" feature. I have used the "^13" text to replace carriage
returns but they don't select this non-printable character.
I have looked at the following web site, but don't see anything that matches:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/as...331361033.aspx

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tyler
