Sort on columns that look like they have spaces but do not












-2














I need to sort a column to delete all bold cells. My issue is some of the rows look like they have a space or two, or indentation, but when I click in the cell they do not so sorting isn't helping at all. Anyone have a solution? Thanks.

    What is the relationship between the space/indent issue and the cell being bolded?
