am trying to write something that will allow me to select a range of cells
(mostly just within 1 column, but maybe hundreds of rows deep). Then I want
to loop through each cell in the selection and at each cell perform
"ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.ValueI " to basically activate the cell.
I do this for fields of info pulled from a Financial LAN where they come
down as text. Use to have this written in personal macro file, but hard
drive crashed and dont remember how I wrote it years ago.

Any help would be appreciated. Here is my non working attempt...

Sub Activate()

' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+Z

Dim cell As Range
Dim myrange As Range

Range(ActiveSheet.Range).Name = "myrange"

For Each cell In Range("myrange")

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=1, columnOffset:=0).Activate
Next cell

Selection.End(xlUp).Select
End Sub
