Changing multiple formulas at one time
 
I have a workbook with 30 worksheets that all have approximately 100 formulas
that read =(Cell)*.0342. I want to change the formula to read
=(Cell)*($AA$1) so I can change the value to $AA$1 as inflation changes. Is
there a way to change multiple cells at once?

Changing multiple formulas at one time
 
Try grouping your sheets.
click on the first worksheet tab and ctrl-click on the others.

Then edit|replace
What: 0.0342 (include the leading 0!)
with: $a$1
replace all

Rightclick on any of the grouped worksheets and select ungroup sheets.

(I'd save first and verify after!)

Highlight the cells which have the formulae in them, then do Find &
Replace (CTRL-H). In the Find box you need to enter:

..0342

and in the replace box:

($AA$1)

then click Replace All.
