I create a formula in a cell, I take the result (a number) and copy (values
to get rid of the formula) it into a cell to the left. When done there is an
apostrophe at the beginning of the number.

How can I get rid of this apostrophe with find/replace command. I have tried
everything, it just comes back teling me it can not find a data...

PS.

I'm doing this with about 33,000 lines of data.
