Default Text to columns


I have just converted text to columns, excellent!

However two minor complications.

1. there is a blank row btween each text row, which I don't want, and
too many to remove individually (over 2000)

2. one part of the data is a grid reference and was formerly (20,192)
now because of the delimiter being a comma it has put in two separate
columns as:

(20 and 192)

and I would like to either combine them again as before in one column
or remove the parenthisis and have them in two columns.


tx in advance
