    Re: Removing carriage returns

    Maybe something like this (works on PC...not sure about Mac)
    • Select the range of cells be impacted
    • Home.Find&Select.Replace (or CTRL+H)
    ...Find what: CTRL+J (that will insert an invisible carriage return)
    ...Replace with: (leave this blank)
    ...Click: Replace All

    Is that something you can work with?
