    Yes. Press CTRl F. click on Replace then Type the old txt in Find What. Then, write the replacement on Replace with space. When your done type Replace all if you want to replace without checking what is replace; otherwise, do find all in list all locations tabs/sheets/cell containing such text.

    Hope this helps.

    Forgot to add this other trick. If your cell is in the same location for all worksheets. Then, just highlight all sheets, by clicking on one and holding ctrl+shft press to the last tab. This encompass all tabs or just right click on tab and group all. now be very careful....just type on the cell you want to change and this will change all cells in the same location to all tabs.

    @ Service1

    Based on your last post it seems that you are satisfied with the solution(s) you've received but you haven't marked your thread as SOLVED. I'll do that for you now but please keep in mind for your future threads that Rule #9 requires you to do that yourself. If your problem has not been solved you can use Thread Tools (located above your first post) and choose "Mark this thread as unsolved".
    Thanks.
