Default How to find and replace in Excel for special characters?


Jill

Not sure you'll be able to do it using Find+Replace - it's a
non-printing character. You could remove it by using worksheet
function CLEAN ie:

=CLEAN(A1)

It might be a good idea to actually identify what type of NPC it is
(most probably a carriage return or a tab or new line feed) by using
the CODE function. You could then write a VBA routine to remove all
such characters from your sheet.
