[ExcelVBA] Find Replace of spaces

 

Hi all

I am struggling with a table imported into Excel from a web page.

It correctly formats as a table in terms of columns, but the numbers all have the format of [SPACE]122.500[SPACE], General formatting.

Find and replace of [SPACE] with nothing gives an error message.

Interestingly, =SUBSTITUTE(C1," ","") does not give an error message, but does not remove the spaces. If I test it by multiplying the result with 1, I get a #VALUE error, and the spaces are visually still there.

I can't test for TAB, as it has special functions in Excel. Try using it in a formula!

Any ideas?

Regards

Paul
