Default Remove an extra space after a number.

I'm guessing that "dot" that is at the end of your two sample lines is in
the cell. If so, select the column with those "extra space" entries, click
Edit/Replace from Excel's menu bar, put " ." (without the quote marks; that
is, type space and dot) in the "Find what" field and put "." (again, without
the quote marks; that is, just put a dot) in the "Replace with" field, then
click the "Replace All" button.

I have a column of numbers. Each number has an extra space after the
number.
Instead of 102.
It's 102 .

I tried using the =trim(cellRef) and then copying the values of that
column
over to another column, but it kept the space after the nubmer.

I also tried a find and replace for just the space, but the new excel
wouldn't let me do that.

Help.
