Replacing numbers
I have a spreadsheet which contains 6 digit numbers (i.e.209111, 209112,
209113). I would like to perform a bulk replace for just the first 3 numbers. Turn 209*** into 210***. Any suggestions? Thanks, Randy |

Hi,
Highlight the column where you have the numbers, hit Ctrl H, find what enter 209, replace with enter 210, replace all "Randy B." wrote: I have a spreadsheet which contains 6 digit numbers (i.e.209111, 209112, 209113).

Worked.
Thank you very much. I was trying to use * to place hold for the last 3 numbers and it didn't work. Thanks again.
