Hi Hew,

That is so helpful.

I've been vexed with this marker for longer than I'd like to admit!

BTW, in my Word 365 it did work in Ctrl + H and it placed that
"symbol" in the Find and with Replace All set it deleted them all.

Thank ever so much for that fix.

The posters on this list can be phenomenal.... Once I can carve time
to follow their hacks! :)

Charles.

Hi Charles,

Those are "end of cell markers" in a table. They fall under the
"non-printing characters" so can be hidden fairly easily.

Here is a guide
