how can I delete "*" formated as text
Some more info...
Excel can use wildcards in some functions and operations (edit|find, for
example).
* for any characters
? for any single character
~ as an "escape" character to indicate that the next * or ? should be treated as
an asterisk or question mark--not as wild cards.
So to find an asterisk, you use: ~*
to find a question mark, you use: ~?
to find a tilde, you use: ~~

I have a column that contains names and is formated as "Text".
Some of the cells have a "*" - at the end of the name.
I would like to find a way to delete all of the "*"s.
If I use "Replace" and have it look for * it will replace all of the
contents of the cell.
Is there another way to do this?
thanks
