I'm jumping in again!

For each cell in column A, check to see if matches a value in column B (any
value--not just the same row!).

And if it matches, then take the corresponding value from C (on the matched row
and copy it to the cell in column A.

A B C
aaa aac x
aab bbb y
aac aaa z
aad bbc w

So for aaa, I'd see a match in row 3 and use Z in column A.
For aac, I'd see a match in row 1 and use x in column A.

A B C
z aac x
aab bbb y
x aaa z
aad bbc w

If this is true, then I'm going to suggest a different approach.

Insert a new column B (shifting B&C to C&D)
Insert this formula in B1.
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,$C$1:$D$99,2,FALSE)),A1,VLO OKUP(A1,$C$1:$D$99,2,FALSE))

Adjust the ranges to match your data (and start in the correct row).

If you change anything in column A, then column B will fix itself with the nex
calculation.

If you don't want to see column A, then you can hide it.

If this were a one-time shot (you never need to do it again), then convert
column B to values and delete column A. (one way to convert to values:
copy|Paste special|Values)

Have to write:

Dave, thanks for your Help with whole Sub, and thanks to Don for original
idea this really works!
(Problem was as I see only in my poor knowledge of VBA)

Now I'll try to make this Sub to work for whole B Column.
As I see Value in Cell A will be changed only if Value in Cell B matches,
but the Row have to be the same also!

Original text is much more complex there is 25.000 Rows and 15 Columns.
(375
000 Cells) I will try to make all Columns separate, if this will work for
a
single column.
In this single column data is been repeated some times so amount of cells
in
Single "A" column will be 25 000, and amount of Cells in B and C columns
will be only about 5 000 cells per column, and cell's B Value does not
correspond to A Value in current Row in 99,99% of cases.

As I already wrote on 23rd 08 2003:

It works for

RED RED R
BLUE BLUE B



But not for

RED BLUE B

Have you any Idea how to make it work?
