Default how to strip an individual symbol from each row in a column

Hi John,

Am Thu, 5 Jul 2012 22:46:02 -0700 schrieb jbclem:

<axln
<aapl
<bwld
<caml

etc....

Is there a way in Excel to strip the < and symbols from each line, leaving
only the actual stock market symbol (ie: axln, aapl ). I've done it
manually, but it's very tedious. I'm looking for a way to do this
automatically.


try it with Find & Replace:
Find what < and replace with nothing then
find what and replace with nothing


Regards
