How can I copy plain text from Excel to Notepad?
When you select the cell, press Ctrl-C to copy, then switch to Notepad
and paste, is that what happens?

I have used the CONCATENATE function to put together a header for a SQL

characters. *(And if I use the CLEAN function in Excel, the format goes away
entirely)
Any ideas how to preserve the format in the cell, but still have the text
copyable to Notepad?
