Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().

Since I always see the board members as rushing in on white steeds with swords drawn to slay my Excel problems, what about...

...Excelsior.

But, I also really liked the PiXL suggestion from earlier :smile:

Apart from my own suggestion, of course, that's the best suggestion I've seen...

Excelsior....

I like that...... it brings up an image of the Queen's charger, from legend - although this was referred to as a "Paladin".... which is a bit too close to our favourite poster, hence me not suggesting it

but Excelsior is a great idea

:smile:
 
Wow! One of mine is in there. For some reason, that extremely surprised me.

(I'm talking about "Celie," btw :smile: )

Though I am still trying to figure out how "Xlie" rhymes with "Annie"...
 

Hi Bill
Picky, picky, picky, i know, but I noticed that Chris Davidson's suggestion of 'Malcolm XL' has been listed on the voting page as 'Mr Malcolm XL'.

It comes as no surprise to me to discover that grammatical pedants have no sense of poetry :smile:

(Although I'm equally surprised that said pedants missed an archetypal feminine ryhme!)

Well, the only think I could come up with was "Sally," but for some reason, I didn't think that was right. It's the whole "X" in there that's throwing me off, darnit...

(but, to be fair, no, I'm not much into poetry :smile: )
 
Okay,

Having checked out the voting list for this guy,
not that I feel slighted that X-man's not on the list,
but I think Bubba's a better choice than anything on the list...

And if androgany is the objective, why not Pat?
