I have inherited a complex spreadsheet with formulas all over the
place. The requirements are long gone. The original developers used named fields to define cells referenced in the formulas. It's easy enough to display all the formulas in one or all worksheets using the Ctrl/~ keystroke combination. I would like to be able, once all formulas are displayed and all worksheets are selected, to do a find for each names field to find where it's used throughout the formulas in the spreadsheet. Thus far I get a not found condition when doing the find. I could probably write a macro to spin the cells to see if I can find named fields in the formulas but would need to test that. I know that I can insert formulas into cells via a macro but haven't had the need to look at the contents of formulas via a macro so don't know if this could be done. As will every project in our exciting corporate world my time frame is rather short and there are a lot of these named fields. Does anyone know how to do a find for data contained within the formulas themselves? I am far too lazy to want to look at every formula in every worksheet to see if these named fields are used but will do so if that's how I have to proceed. Hoping... Thank you, Jeff Jones |
