How do I unwrap text to columns?
I have a spreadsheet where the addresses have been saved as wrapped text in
one column. I want to spilt the addresses into columns as Address1, Address2 etc but I can't enter the wrap character (which I think is ALT+ENTER) as a delimiter in the Text to Columns wizard. I have also tried search and replace but again Excel will not recognise ALT+ENTER as a delimiter Any ideas much appreciated! Thanks |

Re-format the column to eliminate the wrap.............then use Data
TextToColumns with Alt010 (from the keypad) as the delimiter Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "ChristineR" wrote: I have a spreadsheet where the addresses have been saved as wrapped text in one column.

In Text To Columns,
Click "Other" Then hold down <Alt Then enter 010 Using the Num keypad, *not* the numbers under the function keys. -- HTH, RD ================================================== === Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ================================================== === "ChristineR" wrote in message ...
