There are a lot of steps to cleaning up a spreadsheet, especially if you’re working with raw data. A common need is to remove spaces at the end and the beginning of a cell in Excel. This is super easy to do using Excel’s TRIM function. How to Use the TRIM Function in Excel
What does the TRIM Function do in Excel? TRIM, one of Excel’s Text functions, removes extra spaces from the beginning and end of a cell in Excel. These extra spaces can be the result of formatting changes, mistakes in data entering, or other errors. Why Use the TRIM Function
Having extra spaces in cells can affect how you can use the data in your spreadsheet. Sorting your data, for example, won’t work correctly if your cells have extra spaces in the front.
