Default Deleting the spaces before and after a number in Excel 97

Take a look here and use Dave McRitchie's Trimall macro. Put a copy of it in
your Personal.xls and you will then be able to use teh routine on any sheet you
are working on. It will do the lot in a heartbeat.

Hi, I have Excel 97, and am trying to analyse some results from an
online survey, which has been stored on a database (MySQL). To get the
details into Excel, I highlight the details on the website, and paste
them in Excel. Unfortunately, phpMyAdmin adds a space before and after
the number, so I cannot add the results together without manually
deleting the space before and after the number. As I have over 800
results, this could take some time. Has anyone got an idea for a macro
that would do this for me? I am no expert in Excel, so the simpler the
better! Thanks in advance,

Edwin
