ActiveCell.Formula = Replace(ActiveCell.Value, "-", ""
ActiveCell.Formula = Replace(ActiveCell.Value, "(", ""

Try to use the macro below

Sub changeover(
With Worksheets("tracking"
With Range("w4:w100"
.Replace What:="(", Replacement:="
.Replace What:=")", Replacement:="
.Replace What:="-", Replacement:="
.Cop
End Wit
.Range("x4").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValue
Application.CutCopyMode = Fals
End Wit
End Su
