I'm trying to replace intros into Excel cells. I've tried using the replace function, introducing Ctrl+J or Alt+010. It works in some cells, but it doesn't in others.
I've tried to change the cell format both into general or text, with no result.
I've also tried to copy & paste the column into a blank sheet and try to replace again and it hasn't worked either.
The original data comes from a csv file.

What do you mean by "intro"? Perhaps a line break?
And what do you want to replace it with?

It seems unlikely that a csv file would contain line breaks in cells.
Could you attach a small sample workbook demonstrating the problem (without sensitive data), or if that is not possible, make it available through OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox or similar?

@HansVogelaar , here you have the sample. The problem is located in column C.
Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you!
When I search for a line feed (Ctrl+J), Excel finds 34 cells.
If I then replace them with a space, Excel replaces 37 instances - some cells must have contained more than one line break.
After that, no line breaks are found, as expected.
I have attached the result.
