    Remove Extra Space

    How do I remove the extra spaces so the numbers match when I run the pivot table. The total should be 4 instead of 2, since the numbers are the same.


    Is there an easier way to do this beside going in front of the number and deleting the extra space.

    I tried using the paint brush to match properties but it didn't work

    Select the numbers and then choose Text To Columns and click Finish.

    Use the Text to columns option in the same column - its available in the Data menu. Once you use that, it will convert the text to numbers. And you will have the right numbers.
