Hi All,
I have a spreadsheet where in few cells, data start with ; (semi colon) and the very next character in not " (double quote). I have to replace only this kind of semi colon by ";" ( Double quote semi-colon double quote).
So the criteria are::::
1. Data in cell start with semi-colon
2. Next character is not equal to double quote
3. Should be replace with ";"
Currently, I am planning to solve this issue be looping each cells --> Finding first chracter ; (semi colon) by using LEFT function --> Finding 2nd Character by MID function and --> then replace that semi-colon.
But, it will be time consuming if there huge data present in the sheet (there will be almost 40000 rows containg data with multiple columns).
Please help me if there is any easiest method or way through which I can replace whole area (like Find-Replace) or is this can be possioble by Regular Expression.
Thanks in advance
Regards
