I would have to select every cell that has a $ amount, and no other cells, and apply the £ currency. But that also might change the other format aspects - commas and number of figures after the decimal point and so forth. What I'm looking for is something that I can apply to the whole sheet, and that just changes $ to £ wherever it occurs. > The exchange rate is another matter, of course, if you need to do > that.
