Hi,

I constantly have to change the factor of a large series of random cells, usually by a thousand or a hundred.

I can for example
  • enter "100" in a random cell,
  • click copy,
  • highlight all the cells I need to change,
  • paste special - formulas - multiply.
  • But, when doing this as frequently as I do, it takes a while!

Does anyone know how I can do this in VBA, so that I can just highlight the cells, run the macro and it will automatically paste special, formulas, multiply by say "100" for every cell?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Jay
