Greg, Thanks for your reply. Good idea! I didn't know it was possible. I will try it on Monday at work. In the mean time, I will have to study what you wrote with a good book, "Mastering VBA for Microsoft Office 2016" by Richard Mansfield.
But I get the idea, I think. You made what was highlighted/selected - a variable, oRng. Then you trim it. Then you copy it into the clipboard. Finally you put any spaces back into the highlighted text on the document.
But I don't see any use for the first statement:
Dim oClipboard As DataObject
Is it necessary?
Thank you so much!
