Default another issue with vlookup

I haven't seen your other post, but if you highlight the cells withthe
formula in (presumably using May!range for the table), then CTRL-H for
Find & Replace:

Find What: May!
Replace with: June!

then click Replace All.

Hope this helps.

I wrote a vlookup formula to look for a value in cell reference of sheet
two.
i copy pasted the formul horizontally. later when it was giving n/a i
realized when i copy pasted the vlookup it changed the cell reference from
A
to B and the C. Is there a way to fix it without going through each cell
and
changing it back to A.


Thanks


No need for a macro. Go back to the original cell and change the reference
to absolute (A1 becomes $A$1, or whatever). Then copy/paste this as before,
and the reference will not change to B, C etc.- Hide quoted text -
