Need Help with Replace Function
hi, not sure how to explain this, but i will do my best. i'm having difficulty with 2 things: where to place a particular function, and how to make it work. i have a worksheet with 5 colums (a to e), and 58 rows (4 to 56). i am trying to affect column "e" by replacing a specific part of the text within the cell, with the text in cell "a", in a ascending order (replace e3 with a3, e4 with a4, and so on) the text in cell e starts at position 43 (inlcuding all spaces and characters), and is 7 characters long (which is the same amount of characters in cell a) the function i have is: =replace(e4:e56,43,7,a4:a56) where do i place this function for this work (ie, which cell), and is this function correct ? this is work related, so i cannot display the extact information, but do need some help asap, as this work is to be completed by tomorrow at the latest, and i have 88 worksheets to apply this to. any help would be appreciated. thanks marty -- buymearing ------------------------------------------------------------------------ buymearing's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=28477 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=480858 |
