CLEAN

Command: CLEAN

 

CLEAN function is used to eliminate any non-printable characters.  Similar to TRIM.

 

Use: if lookups aren't working properly, try to use CLEAN function on referencing cells.

 

Example 1:

 

=clean(A1)

If cell A1 = "  52899  ", then it will return JUST the numbers, not the spaces
