Default Problem Spaces

The ASAP Utilities add-in, available free at www.asap-utilities.com has
features that are very helpful in cleaning up text.........they can delete
unwanted spaces, and other selected characters on demand.

Think I've sorted it. Trim? It worked so I guess it must be the correct
solution?

Hi,
I'm comparing the string values in a column of Dealer Names to those
stored in an Array of Dealer Names.
My code isn't finding any matches (although there are plenty) & I think

it
is something to do with this;

When debug it & step through, I notice that the value of the string in

my
array looks something like this;

"Joe Bloggs & Sons Ltd"

but the variable is returning Dealer names from the column that look
something like this;

"Joe Bloggs & Sons Ltd "

I'm guessing the amount spaces between the last letter of the string &

the
quotation mark is why no matches
are being found. How can I solve this please,


"MERRY
XMAS EVERYONE ! " :-)
