Default Removing formulas but keeping formula totals.

I need to delete some columns that are part of other cell formulas. How do I
go about deleting one column but keep the results of the formulas in other
cells?

Ex. I need to delete column G, but need to keep the result in column H.
When I do delete column G I get the #REF! error. I need to remove formula and
keep number 10.3.

G H

10 =G1*1.03


Thanks!

Michael,

When I go to the cell with the formula in it I don't get the option of paste
special. It's shaded out. I also right clicked in the cell, and it (paste
special) is not avaliable also.

Do you have the cell locked/protected?

You must copy first:

- Copy the cell(s)
- Edit - Paste Special - Values with the same cell(s) selected

Sorry, cowbyeti. First you have to copy the cell and then do the edit -
paste special -values on the same cell.
