What is a replace command in Excel?

The replace command in Excel is the same as the replace command in other programs such as Word. If you want to change one word throughout the worksheet (or workbook, there is an option for that) you can use the replace command rather than changing each instance manually. You define the word (or phrase, number, character, whatever) that you want to remove and define what you want to replace it with. For example if you had used the name Jane 47 times in the spreadsheet and needed to change it to James, you could use find and replace to do all at once. If you copied the same typo throughout a spreadsheet you could use the command to fix all instances at once. Be careful though, Excel can't tell the difference between a word and the same word as part of a larger word. For example if you wanted to replace the word "me" with the word "you" and used this command it would change words like "same" and "mean" to "sayou" and "youan"!
