Default Changing a letter, to a number???


I have started a spreadsheet for genetic data. I have 5 columns of data
with hundreds of entries. I used an "x" to represent entries relating
to the 5 columns. The problem is I should have used 1's and 2's, so I
could total them up and run formulas on them. Is there any way to make
the letter "x" turn into a number 1 or 2? I was just wondering about
the IF statement, will that do it????

Thanks,
Nick
