Using Excel 2003.
Problem replacing a series of dates having a date format of dd/mm/yy. I want
to replace all dates ending with /05 with /06. I enter in the Find box /05
and in the Replace box /06
Error is "Microsoft Office cannot find a match"
I never had this problem with earlier versions of Excel.
TIA
Jim
If those are real dates, try replacing 2005 with 2006.

Check the cell contents of one of the cells (in the formula bar)....
Is the date like: 1/1/05
or (more likely)
is it like 1/1/2005
If the latter, then find /2005 and replace it with /2006
Does that help?

Great, thanks to all. The format was 1/1/2005 and not what I thought.
