problem with GAWK/gsub when substitute new lines |

Hi,
I tried to use gawk to perform some text conversions. But I could not
substitute new lines (\n) using gsub such as:
gsub(/\[[\n]*\]/, "");
For example, if I have a file containing:
<"Week Report" [
]>
I want to convert these lines to:
<"Week Report">
What is wrong with the expression?
Thanks for any help,
Rita
