Default Find And Replace

Greetings,

Is it possible to do a find and replace across multiple workbooks?

Any help will be appreciated.

Default Find And Replace

When I want to do something to multiple workbooks I write two macros, one to
Open and close each file in a directory, and the other to do the change.
Just step through the directory one file at a time, open, do change, save,
close.....open next file, etc.

Vaya con Dios,
Chuck, CABGx3

Hey Chuck,

Thanks for the reply.

Do you have an example of your two macros you could post?
