Default find and replace

In A1 enter =CHAR(ROW())

Copy down to A255

You will see the characters represented by the row numbers.

Note: quite a few look the same.

I exported outlook information into excel. Where there was a return in
the
address, I get two thick vertical bars, which operate like a return when
mail
merged to Word.

I want to replace the return with a comma and a space. Is this possible?

Thanks for your help!
