If I can one entry within a list set-up using Data Validation, how do I get
it to up-date automatically wherever the original selection has been made?
Example: list has:-

Hello
Goodbye
Thanks

I change Goodbye to See Ya ... now I want everywhere that has Goodbye in it
to change to See Ya without me having to go and make the change ... this may
be in more than one workbook so am assuming that if I was to use
find/replace, I would have to open each workbook individually and repeat
process? Or can you use find/replace on closed workbooks?

The workbooks have to be open.
