Change the value in the cell the formula references.

I have in A1 =B1

B1 is qwerty

A1 reads qwerty

Change B1 to asdfgh and A1 will read asdfgh

Hazarding a thought here ..

You could be referring to a defined/named range called: "total"

Try clicking Insert Name Define
The options to change defined names are there
eg In the Define Name dialog, select "total", then edit the name within the
"Names in workbook" box to say "Totalled". Click Add. Then re-select "total"
again, click Delete. Click OK to dismiss the dialog.

Then my earlier guess was out.
... and I'm out of further guesses here, sorry.

Note that a cell *cannot* contain both a formula & a constant value at the
same time. If you delete/type over the formula with say some text, then of
course the formula's gone. Perhaps you were trying to do that?
