Default VBA / Formula

As I told you on MrExcel, evaluating a formula in VBA will not be quicker
than creating WS formulae. It may be a one-off but it will also not
recalculate.

A re-design seems more appropriate as suggested by someone else.

Hello

I have a formula I am trying to put into vba format. I have the formula
working fine in the cells themselves, but it takes a long time to
calculate
and recalculate.

Can anyone help me put this formula into the proper syntax?

There is a function called ColumnLetter that returns only the column
letter.

Code:
 x = Application.Evaluate("If($H" & cell.Row & "=" &
 ColumnLetter(Range(cell.Address)) & """$1"" ,"" -
 "",Sum(If(Countif(Offset(Numbers!$B2,Row(Indirect(""2:1091""))=1,0,1,5),$H" 
 &
 cell.Row &
 ")0,Countif(Offset(Numbers!$B$2,Row(Indirect(""2:1091""))-1,0,1,5)," &
 ColumnLetter(Range(cell.Address)) & "$1))))")

 Function ColumnLetter(rngCell As Range) As String
    ColumnLetter = Replace(rngCell.Address(0, 0), rngCell.Row, "")
 End Function


Here is a sample formula taken from a cell: (Entered as an array formula).

=IF($H2=J$1,"-",SUM(IF(COUNTIF(OFFSET(Numbers!$B$2,ROW(INDIRECT( "2:1091"))-1,0,1,5),$H2)0,
COUNTIF(OFFSET(Numbers!$B$2,ROW(INDIRECT("2:1091") )-1,0,1,5),J$1))))

Thank you so much
