Hello everyone. After running a query in SQL Server 2012, and copying the results with headers to Excel 2013, I have some cells containing semicolons that are inserting a new row. For example, if the cell has a value of patient copay
81234567, when pasted into Excel it is shown as patient copay
- then a new row is inserted with the 81234567. I tested with a coworkers computer, and she is not having the same issue, leading us to believe that there is a setting in my version of Excel that I am overlooking. Is this the case? Thanks.

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

Apparently my semicolons are being stripped out of this post. I cannot figure out how to edit my original question either so I just wanted to let everyone know in the original question there is supposed to be a semicolon between patient copay and 81234567
