    Removing Divide from multiple cells?

    I have a spreadsheet with a couple thousand cells that bring data in from another sheet and divide it by 1000. I need the data to not be divided by 1000. Other than multiplying each cell by 1000 using copy > paste special, is there a way to remove the /1000 in the cells?

    Looks like:
    ='File Name'!A123/1000

    Need to get rid of that last part (/1000) and don't want to go into each cell and delete it out.

    Thoughts?

    Thank you!

    Have you tried Find & Replace?

    Do a Find and Replace
    Ctrl+H
    Enter /1000 in the Find what:
    Leave Replace with: blank
    Click Replace All
