    Changing a cell referent in a formula several at a time...

    I have a workbook with 10 worksheets all which I use a fomrula that references a page called data. How can I change a cell reference linked to another page on several same type formulas without having to go to each formula and change that specific reference to a cell? For example, the formula now reads =IF(+data!B16=3,C16,"") and I now want all the formulas to reference the column a in place of b instead? =IF(+data!A6=3,C16,"") do I have to do this individually ? Any help greatly appreciated...

    Use the Find - Replace All feature

    First - MAKE A BACK-UP COPY OF YOUR FILE JUST IN CASE!!!!!

    Go to Edit - Find (or do Ctrl+F)

    In the "Find what" area type: =IF(+data!B

    Select Formulas in the "Look in" drop down list

    Click on Replace

    In the "Replace with" area type: =IF(+data!A

    Now click Replace All
