    Apostrophe Issue

    An apostrophe has appeared at the beginning of the words and/or numbers in the cells. I have tried using the "Replace" feature to remove these apostrophes and it won't work. I need to remove the apostrophes so I can upload our inventory, as the SKU must be pulled exactly. Any ideas?

    See link

    or use a formula in the next col like below and paste special values then you can delete the first column

    =MID(A1,2,9^9)

    Apostrophe Issue

    See if Excel is trying to emulate Lotus 1-2-3...

    From the Excel Main Menu:
    <tools><options><transition tab>
    All checkboxes should be UNchecked

    Does that help?
