I have a list of text entries in various columns - I need to randomly select cells that contain text and add a "leading space" to the name. Looking for a simple VBA solution that would change the selected cells.

Example: Richard Result: "add 1 space"(followed by) Richard
 

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
Try this:
VBA Code:
Sub AddSpace()

    Dim cell As Range
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
    For Each cell In Selection
        cell = " " & cell
    Next cell
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    
End Sub
