Find and Replace

[extremealv]

I am new to VBA and I tried searching for a solution in the forum and nothing similar was found.

I am trying to Find and Replace.

Here is what I have. In one specific sheet I would like to look for either NA, EMEA, ASIA. Then I would like to replace it only with JAPAN. I managed to do it using only the first value but I do not understand how to write a VBA where it will check the first value "NA" and check the next one "EMEA" and so on.

Sub ChangeValue()

Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim fndList As Variant
Dim rplcList As Variant
Dim x As Long

fndList = Array("NA", "EMEA", "ASIA")
rplcList = Array("Japan!")

Set sht = Sheets("Sheet 1")

sht.Cells.Replace What:=fndList, Replacement:=rplcList, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, _
SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

rpldList does not need to be an array since there is only one value that is used for all replacements.

You need to loop through fndList.

I also recommend CODE tags when posting code, which preserves formatting.

Sub ChangeValue()

   Dim sht As Worksheet
   Dim fndList As Variant
   Dim fnd As Variant
   Dim rplc As String
   Dim x As Long
   
   fndList = Array("NA", "EMEA", "ASIA")
   rplcList = "Japan!"
   
   Set sht = Sheets("Sheet 1")
   
   For Each fnd In fndList
   
      sht.Cells.Replace What:=fnd, Replacement:=rplc, _
      LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, _
      SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False
   
   Next fnd


End Sub

Thank you Jeff.

For some reason when I used the macro, it removed the found values and it did not replace it with anything. Leaving the values in the cell with no rplcList

I'm sorry, there was an error in the code. I used the old List variable.

Sub ChangeValue()

   Dim sht As Worksheet
   Dim fndList As Variant
   Dim fnd As Variant
   Dim rplc As String
   Dim x As Long
  
   fndList = Array("NA", "EMEA", "ASIA")
   rplc = "Japan!"
  
   Set sht = Sheets("Sheet 1")
  
   For Each fnd In fndList
  
      sht.Cells.Replace What:=fnd, Replacement:=rplc, _
      LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, _
      SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False
  
   Next fnd


End Sub
