What speed is your computer? I tried the following code on a sample
workbook that I filled in 24,000 rows of data and 10 columns and randomly
blanked out some of the cells
Public Sub deBlank()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
Cells.Replace What:=" ", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByColumns
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
This took about 2 seconds to complete. Is there something else going on you
are not telling us? Are there calculations occuring that are taking
additional time?

Hey all, Thanks for your help.
I have a workbook with 2 sheets with 24,000 rows and 10 columns of
data, and I need to do a find and replace for all "#Missing" values and
return an empty cell. This takes forever. Is there anyway to optimize
the macro to run much faster?
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With Application
Calculation = xlManual
End With
Sheets("Version 1").Select
Cells.Replace What:=" ", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByColumns
ActiveWorkbook.PrecisionAsDisplayed = False
With Application
Calculation = xlAutomatic
MaxChange = 0.001
End With
ActiveWorkbook.PrecisionAsDisplayed = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
