8 Awesome Find and Replace Tricks in Excel (Advanced)

In this video, I will show you some amazing Find and Replace tricks that you can use in your day-to-day work.
I start with some basics of using Find and Replace in Excel and then deep dive into some advanced things that you can do with it. While most people think that Find and Replace can be used to replace values in the cell, you can also use it to find and replace cell formatting.

You are one of those few that i dont feel sleepy watching the videos

[@kinreybelleza4515]

I feel like you founded Excel 😆. Thanks, Sumit!

[@bjbrooks]

Another excellent video. I've been using Excel since 1990, and never encountered some of the things you covered. Particularly useful are the tips on wildcard searches, format searches, and merged-cell searches. Thank you!

[@LotfyKozman]

You always hit the mark, even though I've turned into a Google Sheet, I can't let the opportunity pass without going through your practical videos. Thank you very much, my old friend Sumit.🙏🙏

[@lydethful]

I find the replace merge with unmerge cells the most useful

[@trumpexcel]

Yeah, merged cells can be a pain. I try and avoid using it as much as possible

[@PaulEBrownbill]

Excellent video, especially using the Tilda key, and line breaks. Paul

[@manosvenianakis9323]

Great video! I didn't understand the purpose of finding merged cells. I would just select and click unmerge..

[@trumpexcel]

If you have multiple places where the cells are merged, you can use Find and Replace to find them all at once and unmerge them.

[@manosvenianakis9323]

@@trumpexcel Thank you for your reply!! I still don't get it though. Selecting a range as you did, then click unmerge.. I think thats faster/easier

[@trumpexcel]

Got your point now. Yes, you don't need this if all you want is to unmerge all the cells. Using F&R can be helpful when you want to know if there are merged cells and/or want to select them. Many a times, I have a need to change the value in merged cells or I want to get a list of all the merged cells so I can decide which ones to unmerge

[@manosvenianakis9323]

@@trumpexcel Great! That makes sense! Thanks again for your help!

[@nuragvlog2405]

What.s the name of font you use in Excel

It's Aptos Narrow. I Believe this was made the default font in Microsoft 365
