find and replace
I exported outlook information into excel. Where there was a return in the
address, I get two thick vertical bars, which operate like a return when mail merged to Word. I want to replace the return with a comma and a space. Is this possible? Thanks for your help! Diane |

the single one? Thanks a bunch for your help!! "Roger Govier" wrote: Hi Diane Try =SUBSTITUTE(A1,CHAR(10),", ") -- Regards Roger Govier "rroswell86" wrote in message ...

In A1 enter =CHAR(ROW())
Copy down to A255 You will see the characters represented by the row numbers. Note: quite a few look the same.
