Hi All,
I need to replace the text "NS" from all the cells in all the
worksheets of an Excel workbook. I wish to design a macro that can help
me do this along with the use of something that would allow me to do
the "Find Whole Word" option similatr to the one we have in MS Word.

A probable way could be to wrap spaces around the word: " NS " (but
that'll have
trouble with " NS.", " NS, "--any punctuation. But this is still
acceptable.


Please can someone help.
Thanks,
Lonely
