Thanks.
Unfortunately it is not an alt+enter.
After testing both char(10 or 13) I always get at the end of the phrase a
small square (cube).
The cells have been exported from the MS-Access.
In each cell there were 3,4 phrases. I'm trying to get a non-formatted
text
(no line breaks) but it seems impossible.

I'd try this next:
=SUBSTITUTE(A1,CHAR(13),"")

If that doesn't work...

Chip Pearson has a very nice addin that will help determine what that
character(s) is:

Then you can use that info in the correct formula.

Thank you Bob.
The formula replaces the line-break with a small square.
I don't want that symbol. I just want a space and all the text in 1
line.
Is there a solution?

How can I remove the "ALT+ENTER - line break" from a list of cells
?
