Make the manual change to sheets. Use the macros only. I just tested and
that works.

Hi,
Tried that - actually it was the first thing I tried ...
sigh!!
Same result - it is the dropdown in the find / replace
that controls it no matter what selection I use in VBA.
Thanks anyway
Regards,
Robert

Hi Don,
That's what I did but the replace still defaults to the
whole sheet. The only way I can restrict it, is via
the
Find / Replace option on the Menu bar and if I set the
options to Sheet, it works for the sheet. I need to
switch this via VB though.
I have 2 situations - one where I will change the
entire
contents of a workbook and other times that I want to
change a single sheet.
There are two seperate macros that control this.
I think Excel remembers the last Find / Replace
selection
you made and applies it until it is changed manually.
What do you think?
Regards,
Robert

Then just use a different macro or comment out the 1st
and last lines.

Don hi and thank you for your help!
That worked - except now I have the other problem -
when
I want to restrict a find / replace to a single
sheet,
it
now changes across the wole book - I tried selecting
only
the sheet I wanted it to act on but it still changes
all
in everything. Any ideas?
regards,
Robert

Hi all,
If I record a macro that does a find / replace
on a
sheet
and then record another one that does a Find /
Replace
on
the entire workbook, they are identical!!
How can I code a Find / Replace statement that
will
always perform on all sheets in my workbook?
e.g.
This is the one for the sheet:
Application.FindFormat.Clear
Application.ReplaceFormat.Clear
Cells.Replace What:="aaaa",
Replacement:="bbbbb",
LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
.... and this is the one for the workbook:
Application.FindFormat.Clear
Application.ReplaceFormat.Clear
Cells.Replace What:="aaaa",
Replacement:="bbbbb",
LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
The only way I can make it work, is to set the
switch
in
the Find / Replace Dialog box on the EDIT Menu
bar.
Anyone know how to switch that on in the macro??
Thanks for any help ...
Best regards,
Robert
