Default TRIM not trimming

It will not work for invisible html characters, just non printable
characters

Try using CLEAN() alongside TRIM().

I have thousands of rows of data that I have used the "Text to Columns"

numbers in B).

However, there are leading and trailing spaces in both columns, and when
I
used the =TRIM function to remove them, it doesn't work. Even when I use
TRIM
in column D, then copy that value into Notepad, I can still see the
spaces.

What's wrong?
