    Help with names and addresses list - transposing and formating

    I need some help. I've copied 100's of names and addresses from google spreadsheets to excel. They don't copy over very well, there are a lot of 'hidden' bits. The names and addresses are all over the place, some you have to click on the cell to retrieve the info as a new line has been created.
    So... I used paste special, then match destination formatting. This did the trick but left small squares at the end of each row (where I guess the new line/paragraph would have been...) so how do I get rid of the squares?

    Secondly, the names and address look like this each line of the address is in a seperate cell:

    Bruce Butler
    17 The Cottage
    Anywhere
    HA4 7TT

    I need them to read across the page like this, with each line in a new cell:

    Bruce Butler 17 The Cottage Anywhere HA4 7TT

    I know you can 'transpose' but that only works individually, how do I transpose the whole sheet, I have many sheets with hundereds of names and addresses.

    Phew I'll be a very happy girl when this is sorted, thanks in advance for your help.
