    Talking Adding double pipes between spaces in a cell

    Does anyone have an Excel UDF that takes data with spaces and converts to the double pipe format?



    The example the dspace wiki gives is (
    https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/D...data+Editing):
    Horses||Dogs||Cats

    I need to do the same thing for bounding data that looks like:
    -56.4343 23.4545 67.4309 54.322

    To

    -56.4343 || 23.4545 || 67.4309 || 54.322



    Thanks

    Bob

    Have you tried Ctrl+H (Find & Replace)?

    They are all different values. Like 200 different cells with different bounding coordinates. It would be a nightmare to do by hand.

    I don't know what "bounding coordinates" means. I was suggesting that you replace " " with " || ", sans quotes.
