Hi,
I have some data from a database that have different result for the same texts in different formats.
eg.
catering rome 300 [catering rome] 200 "catering rome" 100
I am looking for a way to let the file become more readable in the below format.
catering rome 300 200 100
I could do this manually but there are many data to be processed and I was wondering if I could use excel to help me automate some of the process.
1. At first, I thought of using some formula to clean up the word eg "[catering rome]" to remove the "[" and "]", likewise for "catering rome". I would want to clean up the " " ". So when its clean, I will then use a compare field to make sure they are the same words before combining the data.
2. Any mutil-steps solutions are welcome.
I would really appreciate it if the experts here can offer me some insights.
Please note that I am a excel newbie and do not be too tough on me.
Thanks!
