ExcelBanter - removing special characters

Hi Mike,

Dave Peterson gave an excellent answer yesterday to a question very similar
to the one you have asked.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Kevin

You may want to take a look at David McRitchie's TrimAll macro:

(look for "Sub Trimall()")

David also has instructions on how to install a macro and run it at:
