I'm trying to use subs to substitute an unknown variable with a number in a Matrix

My Matrix is called values and I have the following

change := f2:

subs(change = 5, values):

This does nothing but when I have the following, it works as expected (All f2 in the Matrix values are replaced with 5)

subs(f2,values):

I'm wondering if its trying to find and replace 'change'. If this is the case how can I get it to use whats assigned to the variable. (I've tried eval(change) but that doesn't work either)

Many thanks
