    Stripping units from data

    Hello,

    I have a very large Excel file 6 x 1000 columns approx. Each data point has 'deg C' added at the end therefore I cannot plot it.

    How do I strip the 'deg C' from each data point without doing it manually as it will take forever?

    Thanks,

    Nevica
