Messy spreadsheet data can make reports harder to read, break formulas, and create confusion. Common problems include extra spaces, mixed date formats, inconsistent currency values, and numbers stored as text.
The Smart Formatter feature in AI Tools For Excel helps users clean data in Excel faster. Instead of fixing values one by one, users can scan a selected range or the full worksheet, find formatting issues, and apply clean formatting rules with more control.
- numbers stored as text
