Hey.

I have a small problem, in a workbook I have several cells that looks like this 01.5564.2135.113
My problem is that I want to remove all the dots so that it looks like this: 0155642135113
What makes it even more complicated is that the dots are in different places in every cells.

It doesn't matter if the solution to the problem is to write a formula or a macro.

Thank you in advance

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
Edit > Replace, replace . with nothing?

Or if you are looking for a formula

=SUBSTITUTE(A1,".","")

If you are using a non-English version of Excel where , is used as the decimal separator then you will need to amend the formula to

=SUBSTITUTE(A1;".";"")
