Roger,
Thanks for your response.

I tried this and nothing happened. Perhaps I don't understand you correctly.
When you say "Mark the range of your data" do you mean select the data?
That's what I did and when I went to Edit=Paste Special=Multiply, Excel
just put a flashing border around the cell that contained the 1.

Hi Fern

One way
Type a 1 into a blank cell on your sheet. Copy the cell. Mark the range of
your data Edit=Paste Special=Multiply.

I have a column of numbers that were imported from a web site and they
won't
sort correctly. I have tried reformatting the cells as general numbers but
that doesn't change anything. I discovered that numbers below 100 have a
space or invisible data in front of the number. If I remove it, the number
then shifts to right alignment in the cell and will sort as a number. Is
there any way I can remove these spaces from all numbers at once instead
of
going down the column row by row?
