This happens when text is pasted into an excel cell from another source like
Word or a soft return has been entered. A soft return in excel is entered by
holding the Alt key while pressing enter. What happens is a CHAR(10)
character is entered allowing the text to be entered on an additional line
within the cell instead of advancing to the next cell. This is a common
problem with importing excel files saved as csv or txt into many database
apps.

Rather than going through the entire file and finding them all I use this
script to copy the file from one sheet to another minus the CHAR(10)
characters.

=SUBSTITUTE('Y:\PathToSheet\[NameOfSheet.xls]Sheet1'!A1,CHAR(10),"")
