It is not as straight-forward as that.

I want to find all instances in a block of text contained in sheet 2 ,of
the
value in cell A1, sheet 1, and replace it with the value from cell B1
sheet
1.

e.g
A1 B1
xxx yyy
A2 B2
aaa bbb
A3 B3
ccc ddd

text in sheet 2...

field b0 @avg ("xxx" , DATEFIRST, DATELAST) ;
field B0 b0 write xxx
field b2 @avg ("ccc" , DATEFIRST, DATELAST) ;
field B2 b2 write ccc

text after replacements...

field b0 @avg ("yyy" , DATEFIRST, DATELAST) ;
field B0 b0 write yyy
field b2 @avg ("ddd" , DATEFIRST, DATELAST) ;
field B2 b2 write ddd

If you notice, in the original text, there was no text string "aaa", so I
want the code the continue throught the list and search for "ccc" without
falling over as it found no instances of "aaa".


Sorry if wasn't clear before....


Thank you,

Bhupinder.

Hi All,

I have a table with two columns, column A contains old values and
column
B
contains new values.

I am trying to create a program, where I paste a piece of text into a
separate worksheet, which contains old values (can be randomly within
the
text, in any cell). I want excel the search through the text and find
any
old values from column A and replace them with new values, i.e. if
value
in
A7 is found in text, then replace with its corresponding new value from
B7.

Also, I don't want the code to fall over when no values are found, and
for
it to move to the next value in the table, i.e. old value in A5 returns
no
match in text, so move onto old value in A6 and try to find a match.

Is this possible to achieve? Any help will be much appreciated.


Kind Regards,

Bhupinder
