    Question Column Left

    I have a LONG column of text. Each row begins with a space. How can move all rows one space to the left ?

    In an adjacent column, =mid(a1, 2, 32767)

    Then copy, paste as values, and delete the original column.

    You can also use 'Text To columns'
    Limiter/breakline after first character
    Not import first column.
