Edit, Replace, Find what = ', leave Replace with blank. WARNING: you
will lose the leading "Zeros" so you will need to have formatted the
cells as text first.

Hi,
You could use Replace from the Edit menu.
Select the first cell in your column.
Edit menu Replace
You should see the 'Replace' dialog box.
In the 'Find What' enter ' (apostrophe)
Leave the 'Replace With' line blank.
From the 'Search' dropdown, choose Columns
Click 'Replace All'

Regards - Dave.
