When downloading information from another system in to excel and when

doing
a formula for instance VLOOKUP the formula will never work because

the
formats from the download in the cells do not correspond to the format

within
excel, becuase there is a space after the text, for example (CLL94

). For me to
overcome this problem is to delete the spacious and bring it back in

line with
excel.

...

If there are trailing spaces in a particular column of data, the
easiest way to remove those unwanted trailing spaces is Data Text to
Columns, select Fixed Width and immediately click on Finish.
