Hi everyone,
This must be the most annoying function VBA has. I just can't seem to get it to work. All I'm trying to do is create a macro to trim the active sheet:
At one point I didn't get an error but TRIM didn't activate. Now I am getting an error on various points of the code. Help!!!

You shoud rename the sub, Trim is a VBA function.
If posting code please use code tags, see here.
Hi Norie,
Thats a great point. I have done that, but the macro still isn't trimming any of the cells in the range (not getting any errors though!). Any ideas?
What happens if you remove On Error Resume Next?
What is in the cells that you expect to be trimmed?
Any chance you could upload the workbook or at least the relevant sheet.

You can get errors on simple functions like TRIM and LEFT, if the MS Visual Basic drivers are not in REFERENCES.
Hi Norie,
I get Run-time error '13' Type mismatch
I can't recreate the error, I tried adding errors to the range, merging some cells etc but still no error.

Hi Martin,
Oh i see. Will vlookups still pick it up even if there is a space like that?
This will get rid of the Chr(160) non-printing characters, and trim.
