Changing Multiple Cell Formulas
I have 20 Columns with the simple formula =SUM (A1:A12), =SUM (B1:B12) etc.
I want to change the A1 in each cell to (A5:A12). Can the A1 be changed to A5 in multiple cells without having to change each one individually. Many thanks for any assitance. |

Changing Multiple Cell Formulas
You mean A1 should become A5, b1 should be B5, ...
If yes, then you could try this: Select the range to fix edit|Replace what: 1: (1 followed by a colon) with: 5: (5 followed by a colon) replace all Essentially, you're looking for a unique string that occurs in each formula. In this case "1:" fit that need. zephyr wrote: I have 20 Columns with the simple formula =SUM (A1:A12), =SUM (B1:B12) etc. I want to change the A1 in each cell to (A5:A12).

Many thanks for the response.
I have tried using the replace option but it only replaces one cell at a time.
