Hello,

I am looking for a simple method of searching through a range and
replacing
target specific characters within each cell / piece of data replacing or
deleting them the old value with a new value. The key is that I want to
specify the position of the character within the cell so I do not
overwrite
with the incorrect data.

Thank you very much,
Mark
