Default Find & Replace Macro Issues---Please HELP.

First off let me say thanks to anyone that can help me out here. I am
sure my question will be easily answered. I have searched this group
for over an over and haven't found a solution that works that well.
What I am having problem with is a Find & Replace macro updating about
a 1000 corresponding ID's and replacing those numbers with
corresponding names.

I have an Excel document where my data is in column J only that I want
to change. I can't limit the find&replace macro to just that column (I
just don't know code that well).

I have a sheet called "data" that looks like

Column A (ID) Column B (NAME)

25743 Monster House
12790 Cars
54689 Saving Private Ryan

I then have the other sheet that has a column J matching the above
column A data, but separated by a "/"...see below

Column J

25743/12790/54689


What I want is to have the macro look in the "data" sheet and change
the column J in my "inventory sheet" to look like

Monster House/Cars/Saving Private Ryan



I have a list of about a 1000 ID's in A and the names in B in the data
sheet. Again, I only want to change the data in column J on the
inventory sheet.

Can you please help me?

Thanks.
