Default Find and replace

I have a spreadsheet where I need to replace the single number "1" with a "0"
but not the "1" if it is included in another number. i.e. 11, 12, 21,
31....etc

You can do this with a Find and Replace just be sure that under options you
check off "Match Entire Cell Contents"

Hi

No, you don't, but the Match entire contents is on the dialogue box
without having to go to Options.
