Default Find and Replace in Formulas

Hello All,

I am using Office XP and have a problem.

I have a workbook with many sheets where I had defined global range
names for eg

xxxxData (xxxx = variable lengths of Alphabets from A to Z)

Now for some reason I need to change it to local range names for eg
xxxx!Data

and also replace "" (double quotes) used with an IF formula to
"NA"

The range names are used in various Vlookup Formulas.

Is there a macro to search each formula and change xxxxData to
xxxx!Data or simply replace the word Data with !Data and also replace
"" to "NA"..on all the sheets in the workbook

I searched "" and replaced it with "NA" which worked with
Replace All.

I tried the following with Find and Replace:
Find: Data
Replace with: !Data

but I cannot use Replace All ...for some reason it gives me error and
have to do it one by one which works...but with so many sheets doing
manually is taking me a long time to do it.

Any help would be appreciated

TIA

Rashid
