Hello, I download a report to Excel which contains the email address of the sender and irritatingly, it repeats the email address but enclosed in "less than" and "greater than" symbols - as shown <any.name@anotherco.co.uk>
Can anyone help with a method to delete the all text and <> symbols?

Thanks in advance
I am using 365

Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Select the column
Find/Replace (Ctrl+H)
Find what: <*>
Replace with: leave blank
In Options, ensure 'Match entire cell contents' is not checked
Replace All

I hate it when "I should have known that" - thanks Peter, problem solved.
