Replace entire column text value
Hi, I want to replace values in a text column but matching only entire values. That is, I want to match "CAPITAL FED" but not "CAPITAL FEDERAL" (it's Spanish 😉) I tried to use Transform > Replace...

dlopez ,
Can you give some example of it? I tried here the option to Match entire cell contents, it worked.
Have you tried clean/trim this column before the replace ?

One way would be to add a Suffix like "#" to your column on the transform tab, then replace Capital Fed#. When you are done you can simply replace # with null (leave the replace field empty).
If this solution works for you, please mark it as the solution. Kudos are appreciated too. Please let me know if not.
