This code defines a subroutine CleanData that cleans up the text in the currently selected cells. It removes extra spaces (replacing consecutive spaces with a single space), leading/trailing spaces, and non-printable characters. To use this code, simply select the cells containing the data you want to clean, and then run the CleanData macro.
Note that this code only works with text data in Excel. If you want to clean up numeric data, you may need to use different techniques depending on the specific data format and cleaning requirements.
