I created a .csv file from an old Palm Desktop application and ended
up with a bunch of these odd squares in many of the cells. I tried to
cut one and paste it into 'find/replace' but it doesn't show up. Aside
from deleting every one of them manually is there a way I can get rid
of them automatically?

Here's a link to a screenshot I took of a couple of cells
