Hi Ashish

No the text is already formatted correctly.
The text is imported as sample shown below. I want to keep this same text
formatting but also remove CHR(10). as mentioned, doing this puts text
into one single line. The Line wrap formatting is also set on
Question is how do I remove this chr(10) and keep text formatting same.

Cheers
Rob

I am not clear about you question. Are you saying that you want to split
the single line contents (with two char(10) feeds) into 3 rows?

Hi Ashish
This works but end up with single line... need to keep the text on
separate lines as below.
at the end of each line there is a "I" black line which I assume is
Chr(10)
As mentioned I can go in and manually delete these with no problems,
text formating stays same.
This may not be able to be automated ??
I Could record a macro but the text is different depending on the
contact..
Sample Text as follows

Hi,

You may also use this formula in spare column. Assumes that C5 has
the imported text


=SUBSTITUTE(C5,CHAR(10),"")

Hi

Imported Text in cells are formatted with 3 line feed characters. If
you
use clean() it deletes the characters and puts the text into one
line. I need to be able to delete the Chr(10)
and keep the formatting by a macro if possible.
This file is needed to be uploaded into SAP which doesn't like
CHR(10).

Presently the only way to do this is to go to the end of each line
and
manually delete the three CHR(10) and all works well as
the formatting stays the same.
I have tried Substitute and Find and replace, Clean() but it always
ends up in single
line....
Hope someone can help....
Thanks
Rob
