Many thanks David. Very helpful.

You may get somewhere with functions like TRIM and CLEAN, but if your
spurious extra character is consistently at one end or the other of the
string you might use =LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-1) or =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-1) as
applicable.

Hi David

That's very interesting!

When I run the LEN formula, every No shows up as 3 and every Yes as 4.

What can I do to overcome this?

M2.
Does =LEN(M2) give you the answer 3?

Also double check that you've got "Formula Is" in your CF, not "Cell
value
is".
