Hi!
1. You can use Edit/Replace but I prefer to use a helper
column and a formula like this:
=SUBSTITUTE(A1,".","")
Copy down as needed then select all those formulas and do
a Copy/Paste Special/Values. Then delete the original list.
2. Select the range of dates and format as mmddyyyy.

I have 2 questions related to formatting information that
I have imported:
1)If I have a coumn that conatins amounts such as
0000000427.99 and I want
to remove the decimal but keep the trailing cents, wat is
the best way to do
that for a whole column? example: 000000042799
2) I also have a date that has been imported as 3/9/2005
and I need to
remove the "/"'s and have the month and date format with
zeros if needed such
as 03092005, what is the best way to accomplish this on a
column.
Thank you,
Rick
