Hello,
I have a worksheet that has some long text in a column of cells. Some of
the words contain right-slant apostrophes ( ’ ) which cause problems with the
program that imports this data. Since there are many instances of this
character that I need to replace with a standard apostrophe ( ' ), I thought
I would do a find & replace to clean up the data. However, Excel will only
find this character if I tell it to find in the "values". The replace only
allows me to search on "formulas" and therefore doesn't find the characters
to be replaced...
Also, I have discovered that if I do get it to find some text it then
complains about the formula being too long...
Anyone know a solution to these problems?
Thanks!
Ian
