Your text probably has a space after it.
Clean ONLY removes non printable chars. Space is printable. Use trim instead.

Whew! Finally got it!
For some reason the spaces are showing as char(160).
But why didn't TRIM take care of that?

But I used Trim(Char...)
Could you make the correction and send it to me?
I tried using SUBSTITUTE(CHAR(32)," ") and SUBSTITUTE(CHAR(160)," ") but still having a problem.

Char(160) is a non-breaking space, so it's treated as a character, and not something TRIM or CLEAN will remove.
Try including a substitution of the non-breaking space (ascii 0160), with a regular space (ascii 0032)
in B1, enter the following =CLEAN(TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(A1,
but be sure to key-in the ascii char 160 by pressing alt-0160 for the first space, then a normal space for the second
Good luck
