Ok, I've got a little code but I need a little help (I'm way rusty with VBA).

Here's what I've got:

Selection.Replace What:="ACAS", Replacement:="BFS"


I need the "BFS" to be dynamic such that the macro grabs the replacement from the header for each row. thank you!!

Excel Facts

Format cells as currency
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+4 to format cells as currency. (Shift 4 is the $ sign).
Selection.Replace What:="ACAS", Replacement:=Range("A1").Value

... will move replace ACAS with the value in cell A1... are you looking for more than that?

Jim,
Thanks for the reply. Here's what I need.

Range("D6:D1310").select
Selection.Replace What:="ACAS", Replacement:=Range("D5").Value
Range("E6:E1310").select
Selection.Replace What:="ACAS", Replacement:=Range("E5").Value
Range("F6:F1310").select
Selection.Replace What:="ACAS", Replacement:=Range("F5").Value

etc, through "EO6:EO1310". so I need the macro to step one column to the right and loop until it gets to column "EO".

I'm almost there, I can smell the finish line. Thanks again.
