Default how do I re-code nominal data into numeric values

Hi, I have a lot of data from an electronic survey that needs coding into
numeric values and was wondering if there are any EXCEL formulas or macros or
something that are able to do this? The closest thing I've found is a Logic
function but i need more than the option of providing "true or false". For
example, one of my scales had five points ranging from never - always. I need
to be able to change never = 0, rarely = 1, sometimes = 2, mostly = 3, and
always = 4. It will take me days to re-code it all manually I need - HELP!
