Usually Edit>Replace works on the selection if the hard return is generate by
Alt + Enter in a cell.

What: CTRL + j

With: nothing

Replace all.

If generated by CHAR(10) in a formula, copy>paste special>values first.

You could run a macro similar to this (change the indicated range as
needed)....

Dim C As Range
For Each C In Range("b1:f3")
C.Value = Replace(C.Value, vbLf, " ")
Next

and then save the worksheet afterwards. The above macro removes each Line
Feed (what you are calling a "hard return") and replaces them with a single
blank space.
