hi Guys

=('R:\Conso\A-conso\2015\03-15\[15Operating PL 31.03.2015.xls]YTD'!$D$54+'R:\Conso\A-conso\2015\03-15\[15Operating PL 31.03.2015.xls]YTD'!$D$55+'R:\Conso\A-conso\2015\03-15\[15Operating PL 31.03.2015.xls]YTD'!$D$56+'R:\Conso\A-conso\2015\03-15\[15Operating PL 31.03.2015.xls]YTD'!$D$62)/'R:\Conso\A-conso\2015\03-15\[1
5Operating PL 31.03.2015.xls]YTD'!$D$7

i'm Triying to find and replace 03-15 to 04-15
and 31.03.2015 to 30.04.2015

however whenever I try to do any of these changes for example 03-15 to 04-15 first excel cannot find the file and automatically opens a window called "update vales in "15Operating PL 31.03.2015" for me to choose a file. Obliviously is not going to work as my find and replace is done individually and it there is not a file in folder 04-15 called 31.03.2015.

what is the way to

find and replace folder 03-15 to 04-15
and file 31.03.2015 to 30.04.2015 at the same time

I have a long column to amend


many thanks ! :)

Excel Facts

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
You can rename batches of folders in windows through either the command line or a downloaded utility. Be careful though, and save a backup.
