How to remove line breaks from Excel cell


Dear Friends,

Today I want to share my experience in Excel.. I think Line Break Character is most popular issue we faced day to day when trying to data cleaning/Transformation in excel or exporting Large data from Excel to SQL for Data warehouse. Sometimes Users typing Enter mistakenly in cell or sometimes copy paste from web page to excel create new line character. 

So before using this excel we need to remove this character to make it proper.

There is quite a few ways to do so, one of them is to use Excel find/replace dialog box.  Using this feature is really straightforward, the only problem is that not everyone knows how to type in the line break symbol. The trick here is to press ALT and then enter 010 using the numeric keypad.


Happy Reading

Configure Impersonation Authentication in IIS8 for MVC Application

Impersonation is when ASP.NET executes code in the context of an authenticated and authorized client. By default, ASP.NET does not use impersonation and instead executes all code using the same user account as the ASP.NET process, which is typically the ASPNET account. There are 5 below steps by which we can establish Impersonation configuration in our secured application environment. 1.)    Creation of Application/Proxy user where Application is hosted. 2.)    Give appropriate access to the user. 3.)    Create Database Login user on database. 4.)    Authenticate User and provide credential on IIS. 5.)    Then Configure web.config on Application.
