I have two columns of mostly identical strings in excel (including identical case), one is pasted from a CSV file and one is from an XLS file.

If I run EXACT, or just =, or =if(A1=B1,true,false) I always get a negative (false) value. Is this an issue with formats? What can I do to achieve the expected result?
