    vLookup Help - Global Change

    I am looking for an easy way to refresh a vlookup formula to point to a different worksheet without modifying each formula.

    For instance;
    =VLOOKUP ('MASTER SHEET'!A2,'MASTER SHEET'!A2:X567,4,TRUE).

    I want to do a global change on these formulas to replace NEW MASTER with all
    formula references of MASTER SHEET.

    Thanks

    Just use Edit|Replace and make sure you are looking in formulas...

    Just as an option...

    If you want to use a cell to hold the sheet reference you could use the Indirect method
