Default copying formula

Hi derksj

If it is one formula add a ' before it and copy it to the new workbook
Then remove the '

If there a lot of formulas you can use edit replace
And replace
=
with
qqq for example

Copy the cells to the new workbook and use EditReplace to chnage qqq to =

When i copy a formula from old.xls to new.xls
then it shows the old values

=((('[Old.xls]Eng-clusters'!$N$13+'[Oud.xls]Eng-clusters'!$N$53)/4)+('[Old.xls]Eng-clusters'!$N$40+'[Old.xls]Eng-clusters'!$N$101))*[Old.xls]Algemeen!$E$55

How can i change this that the new file name is used
