I am using an excel spreadsheet generated from a database, which randomly assigns each client name a unique alpha-numeric identification code. I need to replace the database-generated ID number with my the ID number my company assigns each client.
The database has created a spreadsheet in the workbook that looks like this:
A (database assigned ID) | B (company assigned ID) | |
1 | 00056FJD | 123 |
2 | 00046JFD | 124 |
3 | 00039DHE | 125 |
4 | 00052HFJ | 126 |
5 | 00078JER | 127 |
In all other spreadsheets in this workbook, clients are only identified by their "database assigned ID" and not their "company assigned ID". I need a formula or code to replace the database IDs with the company IDs across the entire workbook. For example, a code that will find all cells matching "A1" and replace that value with "B1" and so on. There are nearly 600 unique database ID/company ID pairs that need to be replaced so it is impracticable to use "find and replace". Is what I am trying to do possible? Thank you in advance!
