Default deleting extra spaces in a string


I have the following problem:

I'm comparing two price tables to see if there are any numbers that do
not match. One of the tables is a Excel table with the numbers written
as "1000000" while the other table is an imported xml table which has
numbers written as "1 000 000". These are actually spaces between the
digits. They can not be erased by formating the cell from 'text' to
'number' or vice versa.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Eric
