Hello,
I am searching everywhere in vain for how to replace a space or a comma with a tab in Excel. I was told to do "Edit --> Replace , with ^tab" but it doesn't work.
Thank you for your help!!
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 6.0

I work on Excel and here is a piece of code that I hope will help you

Sheets("Sheet1").Columns(1).Replace " ", ","
This code allows you to replace all spaces in sheet 1 of column A with a comma.

Otherwise, my goal is to process data from a txt file that I need to insert into my Excel table.
So I insert the data line by line.

Open fich For Input As #1
l = 0
Do Until EOF(1)
Line Input #1, data
data = Replace$(data, vbTab, "!")
ActiveCell.offset(l, 0) = data
l = l + 1
Loop
Close #1

This opens my file, inserts line by line, and before that replaces all tabs with an exclamation mark.

Good luck
see you later

The correct command is ^t. So in the Edit/Replace menu, you enter:
- a space in the Find field
- ^t in the Replace with field, and all your spaces will be replaced by a tab, which will allow you to retrieve all your data in Excel.
