    Two cells, same content but not equal?

    Book4.xlsx

    Title describes it. I can't make sense of it.

    Appreciate any help you can provide.

    The words in cell B3 are separated by a character code 160 and a space; those in D3 by two spaces.

    It's sometimes called a "hard" space. When placed between two words the wordwrap function treats them as one and won't wrap the second to a new line.
