In Excel 2003, when saving data from web-based accounting system into .csv,
numbers stayed numbers. In 2007, anything over 999 has a space between hundreds, thousands, and millions and is treated as text instead oas a number. Can anyone help me adjust the data to remove the one space and keep all data elements as numbers? I have tried SUBSTITUTE, CLEAN, and TRIM, but none will get rid of the spaces. Thanks. |

Try =--substitute(a1," ","")
The -- forces Excel to convert the text to a number. Regards, Fred "Gary Breakfield" .(donotspam) wrote in message ...
