I've imported a query from an AS400 database, and in the column that I'm
using as my "sort", many of the entries start with a blank space. I can
left-justify, but there's still a blank space in some of them, which is
messing up my sort. Is there a macro that I can write to eliminate a blank
space at the beginning of any cell entry? Additionally, some cells begin
with a "<", or a "{" that is unnecessary. I'd like to be able to eliminate
those extraneous characters or blank spaces using a macro if possible.
Thanks for any help.
