I just imported an outline fr Word into Excel (2008 Mac). There are 4 leading spaces in front of many of the text entries, I'm trying to delete them. In case it matters, these are all text entries, no data.
Doing a Replace and entering 4 spaces doesn't work. Doing the same thing w/ the 4 spaces enclosed in quotes (i.e. " ") also doesn't work. Using the =TRIM() function as noted in another post here does not work. The only thing that does work, so far, is manually editing each cell, navigating to the left of the text, and manually deleting the 4 spaces. Ugh, there must be a better way.
Any suggestion?
Thanks very much.
