I'm not quite sure what your question means, but you can also use ctrl-j instead
of alt-0010 in both the edit|replace dialog as well as the Other character in
the data|text to columns dialog.

In the "Find What" box of the Replace dialog, hold down your left ALT key
and type 0010 on the numeric keypad (not the number keys above the letters).

Want to use Ctrl-H to replace a specific character in a range of cells
with a
