Missing Reference?
I'm looking for a better way to get rid of the spaces directly before and
after the values in my cells. When I double click the values, I see the cursor blinking one space to the right of the data, like this: 'Sales . The period is where the cursor sits blinking. Without double clicking the cell, it says: Sales No cursor appears on the unactivated cell (obviously). I know about the "TRIM" function in order to get rid of before and after spaces, but I don't want to have to move the data around in order to do a vlookup. I tried using Find & Replace, but that only helps me find values that are not formula. I believe I might have a missing reference. Does anyone know which reference would make Find and Replace work for formulas? Is there a way to replace the spaces on the outside? Any push in the right direction would be very appreciated |
