Hi,

I know how to search the contents of a cell that contains a specific string and replace it. However, I do not know how to do this using a macro with a list for multiple searches.

However, I would like the same thing done, but from a list.

Example - worksheet1

A B
1 bghmondkj MTL
2 98&^Tor89)( TOR
3 (*^CbhKHJ CHI
4 bru79087kll BOS

List would be on worksheet2... something like this:


A B
1 mon MTL
2 Tor TOR
3 cbh CHI
4 bru BOS


It's probably something kind of simple, but it's beyond my knowledge.

Thanks
