Thanks- typed in the replacement nothing happens after I hit enter.
Is "us postal" the only thing in the cell? That is, you don't have something
like "us postal 100.00" in a cell. Gord's formula should work. Change the
A1:A100 to the range of cells that (might) contain "us postal" and change
the B1:B100 to the range of cells that have the postal amounts. Ensure that
calculation mode is set to automatic (Tools menu, Options, Calculation,
Automatic).
