I do this kind of clean up all the time Linda as I'm constantly dealing
with .csv and .txt files from various sources. Without Word, life would
be a lot more complex. /g

... I ALWAYS tell them to copy it from Excel into Word and use Word's
Convert Table to Text feature on it, then turn on Word's hidden
characters and use Find/Replace to clean it up, then Convert Text back
to Table and Copy it from Word back to Excel....most of them laugh at me
when I tell them Word does this better than Excel...but Excel's
Find/Replace really can't hold a candle to Word's (can't find tabs and
other characters cuz it ain't meant to deal with text..it's a numbers
cruncher)...
