Replace() to "Find whole words only" ...
Hello -
I have a spreadsheet with cells that have entries separated by Alt-Enter. Is there a way to use the Range.Replace() function to only find entire "rows" within that cell? Here is an example of a single cell ... XXX_ABC.vb YYY_CDE.xls If I do a find of "ABC.vb" for instance, I do not want to find anything in such a cell because it is only a partial "row". I cannot break this into multiple cells and I have also written a routine to step through each cell and identify entire names. The problem is that this is very slow and the Range.Replace() is so much faster. Thanks, Joe |
