Just like MS Word, you use "Search and Replace" to accomplish the edit you
describe below. Simply highlight the column with the data and then locate your "Search and Replace" option. ("Search and Replace" is located in different places depending upon Excel version. Use HELP to locate it in your version if needed.) This is a very handy, re-usable skill (Search and Replacein Excel). I use it every week in the normal course of work.
