mass change of hyperlinks in Excel

[Dan <dan27649@xxxxxxxxx>]

The server gods in our company have, for reasons unknown to me or other
affected parties, again moved one of our major "applications" from one
server to a new server.  As a result, all of the hyperlinks in the
spreadsheets have to be changed to refer to the new server/path.  Each
spreadsheet may have upwards of 400 links to documents on this server, so
you see the impact that this change has.

Is there a way to define the server/path once in a spreadsheet, like
assigning it to a symbolic name (like a drive letter), and then using that
symbolic name in the hyperlinks?

When they did this previously, a few years ago, I searched for a "scan and
replace" utility, but found none (that were free, since that was my budget)
that would do this for hyperlinks.

Advice / suggestions welcome.

TIA,
Dan
