Tilde not working to replace asterisk?
I'm not sure if using the tilde followed by the asterisk no longer works to find and replace the asterisk, or if I have something set weird. I am pretty sure I've always used ~* when wanting to find and replace an * but now Excel gives the error that "There's a problem with this formula". Is there another easy way to do it? Thanks!
