changing the address of data in a cell
I have several sheets in a file and cells in the sheets read data from
different other excel files. In some cells in each sheet (hard to find one by one) the address is for example: ='D:\Gaines\Sourcefiles\Wet\Result\[2005.xls]AA340501'!E6 I want to change the address to: ='D:\Gaines\Sourcefiles\Wet\Result\[1995.xls]AB623501'!E6 I have to add that I have data in different cells not just E6. Instead of cell by cell how can change the address (like above example) for the whole sheet? Appreciate your help |

Highlight the whole sheet by clicking on the box which intersects the
row and column labels, and then do Find and replace (CTRL-H): Find what: [2005.xls]AA340 Replace with: [1995.xls]AB623 click replace all Hope this helps.

Thanks
How do I do it for the whole file if I have mutiple sheets in it and do not want to do it sheet by sheet?
