How do you find and replace tab characters in a cell in Excel?
 
I am getting tab characters in cells in a spreadsheet loaded from a DB.

Is there a way to find tab characters? Word has a swell "special" pull down
and escape sequences for control characters but Excel doesn't have anything
obvious.

Thanks.

in the *search for what* space, hold down the ALT key, enter 0009 from the
numeric keypad, let up on the ALT key, that puts a tab character in there.
