Hi,

Nice idea. It may be handy to know which spreadsheet application you're 
using.

In Libre Office and probably OpenOffice too, just highlight the block of 
cells you want to change and then do a find and replace. Replace 
cellnumber with sheetname.cellnumber  eg "A7" with "Sheet2.A7"

For many references, I don't know if it can do a regular expression. It 
depends on the complexity of your spreadsheet whether this is worth 
exploring.

Regards,
D.
