Excel Line breaks/returns












0















When I “copy with header” of the data on SQL Server and paste it onto Excel there is like a return line or breaks. Is there a way for me to remove the breaks or the returns?



I tried using select all and copy with header onto excel and the data is not the same because of the line/return breaks.



Also tried saving as .csv and also tried saving as .xls and the data is still not the same



This is what it looks like when I tried to copy and paste it with headers or saving as .csv and .xls

          Try updating the Retain CR/LF on copy or save setting in SSMS. On the menu, go to Tools then Options. From here select Query Results, then SQL Server, and Results to Grid below there. After you update the Retain CR/LF on copy or save option a new session will need to be created for this to become effective, which can be done by just opening a new query window in SSMS.
