Default eliminate space at beginning of line

Hi

Try in another column
=TRIM(A1) and copy down
Copy the helper column and paste SpecialValues back over column A

Hello, I just ran find and replace to find a word and remove it. The
problem
I now have is it leaves the space after the word which in some cells
leaves
the space before the now first word in the cell. ex. "connecticut
news" is
now news because i remove the connecticut but it left a space before
news in
the cell. How can I remove that first space only in the cell
