Multiple Iterations of Find/Replace At Once!

If you need to perform a bunch of find and replace actions at once, you can use Arrays to store your
values.

Sub Multi_FindReplace()

'PURPOSE: Find & Replace a list of text/values throughout entire workbook

Dim sht As Worksheet

Dim fndList As Variant

Dim rplcList As Variant

Dim x As Long

fndList = Array("Canada", "United States", "Mexico")

rplcList = Array("CAN", "USA", "MEX")

'Loop through each item in Array lists

For x = LBound(fndList) To UBound(fndList)

'Loop through each worksheet in ActiveWorkbook

For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets

sht.Cells.Replace What:=fndList(x), Replacement:=rplcList(x), _

LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, _

SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

Next sht

Next x

Multiple Iterations of Find/Replace At Once (Feeding From A Table)

You can also read my post describing how you can populate your Array variables from an Excel
spreadsheet Table if you already have you list handy on your spreadsheet (sometimes it can be a pain
typing all your values out inside your VBA code). Below is an example of how this can be accomplished.

Sub Multi_FindReplace()

'PURPOSE: Find & Replace a list of text/values throughout entire workbook from a table

'SOURCE: www.TheSpreadsheetGuru.com/the-code-vault

Dim sht As Worksheet

Dim fndList As Integer

Dim rplcList As Integer

Dim tbl As ListObject

Dim myArray As Variant

'Create variable to point to your table

Set tbl = Worksheets("Sheet1").ListObjects("Table1")

'Create an Array out of the Table's Data

Set TempArray = tbl.DataBodyRange

myArray = Application.Transpose(TempArray)

'Designate Columns for Find/Replace data

fndList = 1

rplcList = 2

'Loop through each item in Array lists

For x = LBound(myArray, 1) To UBound(myArray, 2)

'Loop through each worksheet in ActiveWorkbook (skip sheet with table in it)

For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets

If sht.Name <> tbl.Parent.Name Then

 sht.Cells.Replace What:=myArray(fndList, x), Replacement:=myArray(rplcList, x), _

LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, _

SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

End If

Next sht

Next x

End Sub

Notifying How Many Cells Were Changed

You may find yourself wanting to report out how many changes were made after your code has run. You
can accomplish this by using the COUNTIF() function to count how many cells contain your Find value
before you actually perform your find & replace.

The one downside to using the COUNTIF() function is it will not count multiple occurrences within a
single cell. I could not figure out a way around this and if you know of a way to accomplish this please let
me know in the comments section (this article might point you in the right direction).

Sub FindReplaceAll_CountReplacements()

'PURPOSE: Find & Replace text/values throughout entire workbook, notify user of how many cells were
affected

'SOURCE: www.TheSpreadsheetGuru.com

Dim sht As Worksheet

Dim fnd As Variant

Dim rplc As Variant

Dim ReplaceCount As Long

fnd = "April"

rplc = "May"

For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets

ReplaceCount = ReplaceCount + Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(sht.Cells, "*" & fnd & "*")

 sht.Cells.Replace what:=fnd, Replacement:=rplc, _

LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, _

SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

Next sht

MsgBox "I have completed my search and made replacements in " & ReplaceCount & " cell(s)."

End Sub

Sub qwerty()
Dim rFirst As Range, r As Range
Dim A As Range
Set A = Range("A:A")
Do
If rFirst Is Nothing Then
Set rFirst = A.Find(What:=1, After:=A(1))
Set r = rFirst
Else
Set r = A.Find(What:=1, After:=r)
If r.Address = rFirst.Address Then Exit Do
End If
MyString = MyString & " " & r.Offset(0, 1)
Loop

MsgBox MyString
End Sub

You need to call Find once, and then successively FindNext

Dim rng As Excel.Range
Set rng = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("sheet1").Range("F1:F1000000")
Set cellFound = rng.Find("1")
Do While Not cellFound Is Nothing
Set cellFound = rng.FindNext
Loop
